Ed the Zebra’s life on the lam has come to an end.

The striped wonder was finally apprehended in Christiana, TN, on Sunday after over a week on the run.

“Rutherford County Sheriff’s Office is happy to report Tango 82 aviation crews located Zebra Ed and returned him to his owner Sunday,” authorities said in a statement posted to Facebook Sunday.

Accompanying the statement was a video of Ed spinning around as he was carried by helicopter to a waiting trainer.

Other videos posted to social media showed Ed running wild in a Tennessee residential neighborhood.

“Drivers on Interstate 24 watched him scampering across the highways in both the eastbound and westbound lanes Saturday,” the Rutherford sheriff’s office said. “He escaped into a wooded area and disappeared until being spotted Thursday.

“The Rutherford County Sheriff’s Office appreciates the THP and TWRA for their assistance in the successful rescue.”
