thumb|Zukra on display at the Musical Instrument Museum (Phoenix)|Musical Instrument Museum The zukra (or zokra or zoughara, ) is a Libyan bagpipe with a double-chanter terminating in two cow horns; it is similar in construction to the Tunisian mizwad.
The instrument is played as a bagpipe in the south and west of Libya, but played by mouth without a bag (as a double clarinet) in the east. The instrument is played at feasts, weddings, and funerals.
