zebra

In medicine, a common disease presenting with unusual symptoms. Also applies to a patient with symptoms common to several diseases in which the first diagnosis is of a rare or obscure disease, when the truth is a more mundane disorder.

The term was popularised by Scrubs.

Derived from the axiom "When you hear hoofbeats, think 'horses', not 'zebras'.

Zebra

1. A woman (the prey) who gets slipped a drugged drink (by the predator) and is either raped or sexually harassed. A target of an attack.

When an actual zebra is preyed on, none of the other zebras in the group help the distressed animal. So the one zebra is left alone to be preyed on by the lions.
