The Zebra


Zebras are social animals which have never been truly domesticated.

There are 3 species of zebra: 1) the plains zebra, 2) the mountain zebra, 3) the Grevy's zebra.
Zebras live in Africa but each species has its own home area. The Plains Zebra live in the treeless grasslands and woodlands of eastern and southern Africa. The Grevy's Zebra lives in the arid grasslands of Ethiopia and northern Kenya.
Zebras have black and white stripes all over their bodies except for their stomachs, which are white. They have 4 one-toed hoofs. Their slender, pointed ears reach up to 8 inches in length. Zebras have manes of short hair that stick straight up from their necks. The stripes on their bodies continue to the mane.
Zebras reach 6 to 8 1/2 feet in length. Their tails are an additional 1 1/2 feet long.They feed on a variety of grasses. They are most active in the early morning and late afternoon.
LIVE AND LOVE LIFE !
