Zebra


Zebras, animals native to Africa are known for their unique black and white stripes. They are closely related to horses, donkeys, and the like. Zebras usually weight about 300-450 kilograms. They eat mostly grass and lions like to eat zebras, as depicted above. Zebras' stripes are said to provide camouflage from predators, and to keep them cool in the hot African savanna. No two zebras have the same stripe pattern.
