About the Zebra (Plains)
The plains zebra is a highly social grazing herbivore of eastern and southern Africa. It is recognised by its bold black-and-white striping, with each individual having a unique stripe pattern. Plains zebras live in family groups, usually consisting of a stallion, several mares and their young, and these groups may combine into large herds where food and water are abundant. They primarily graze on grasses and are strongly associated with open grassland and savanna.
How to identify the Zebra (Plains)
Large horse-like animal with bold black-and-white vertical stripes across the body, with horizontal striping on the rump and legs. Plains zebras have rounded ears, a short upright mane and a distinctive striped pattern unique to each individual.
