When I run the following command in zsh I get empty result.
echo '-' | tr -dc '[0-9]-'
Expected result is single dash as output.
When I run it in bash or sh, then result is single dash as expected.
% zsh --version
OUTPUT> zsh 5.7.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)
% tr --version
OUTPUT> tr (GNU coreutils) 8.30

I will also say, that I poorly familiar with manuals of zsh and even tr.
So maybe this behavior is not a bug.
