Interesting Zebra Facts And The Differences Between Each Species
The black and white stripes on a Zebra proves that opposites do attract. Zebras are known to reinforce their bond by grooming one another. They symbolize perfect balance and harmony. They are social animals which believe in family unity. They will form a circle around a dangerous predator and prepare to strike if the predator intents to attack. Zebras would also circle a wounded member and attempt to drive-off the predator. A large mass of moving Zebras makes it difficult for some predators to attack because the blended black and white stripes can confuse the predator, making it difficult for the predator to make a direct attack. The Zebras long, thin legs also help to make a quick and easy escape and one powerful kick from this hoofed animal can cause serious injury to any predator, which includes lions, leopards, cheetahs and hyenas.
Although Zebras may look the same from a distance, there are actually three different types of Zebras with three different stripe patterns. The Plains Zebra is the most common and recognizable Zebra. They can be found live in treeless grasslands and savanna woodlands. They weigh around 600 pounds and can stand 57 inches high at its shoulders. The black stripes consists of different lengths and widths that come together in the midsection of the animal to resemble the letter Y. The Mountain Zebra weighs around 650 – 700 pounds. They are generally found in the mountains or hilly habitats. Their black and white stripes are vertical, with the exception of their belly which is solid white. Last but definitely not least is the Grevy’s Zebra. Grevy’s are the largest of all Zebras, weighing an astonishing 1,000 pounds. They live in grasslands and semi-arid scrub. It’s black and white stripes differ from the rest of the species because they are more narrow and the stripes encircle the rump in a concave pattern.
