A zorse is the result of a cross between a male zebra and a mare. A hebra is the offspring of a male horse and a female zebra. I think the difference in nomenclature is because the cross between a mare and a male donkey produces a mule, whereas the cross betwween a male horse and a female donkey does not create the same thing... It produces a hinny which looks more like a horse than a donkey. Therefore, different names were created depending on which animal was the sire and the dam.

A zorse, also called a "zebrula" is the offspring of a coupling between a zebra stallion and a horse mare; when a horse stallion and zebra mare mate, their offspring is called a hebra.

Zorses are real having been bred on purpose to test cross-species mating ability among equines since the early 20th century. As such, they are not true crpytids. Some zoos around the world continue to feature these animals. As is the case with such hybrids, a zorse is infertile and therefore has no offspring.
