HOUSTON (AP) — A 32-year-old zebra at the Houston Zoo has died of complications from age-related conditions.

Zoo officials say the female Grant's zebra named Charlie died Sunday morning,

A zoo statement says the feisty zebra, known to hold her own and kick at the towering giraffes if they got too close, died a month shy of her 33rd birthday.

Zoo officials on Wednesday didn't immediately provide additional information about the zebra.
