The common zebra, also known as the plains zebra, is the most widespread zebra species in Africa. First, its black and white stripes are unique to each individual and help with camouflage and social bonding. Second, zebras are highly social animals, often found in large herds for protection. Third, their diet consists mainly of grasses, and they can survive in varied habitats from savannahs to woodlands. Fourth, zebras have excellent eyesight and hearing, which helps detect predators. Fifth, they often form mixed groups with wildebeests for added safety during migration. Zebras are a vital part of the African ecosystem.

Pic of the day - the young animals are always my favourite.
Did you know that young zebras learn to recognise their mom from their stripe pattern? That is quite fascinating.
Sound and scent also play a part.
Isn't nature amazing?
