Whether you call them Zeb ras or Zee bras these black and white striped horse-like creatures are one of Africa’s most easily identifiable animals.
There are Mountain Zebras and Plains Zebras, with more than half a dozen different subspecies. This one here is the Crawshay’s Zebra, photographed in South Luangwa National Park, Zambia. Variations in the size and colouration of stripes, as well as general body size and shape are common ways to tell Zebra species apart.
