zebra definition and meaning

What is a "zebra"?

A zebra is a member of the equine family and is best known for its distinctive black and white striped coats. They are found primarily in Africa, in a variety of habitats including grasslands, savannas, and woodlands. There are three species of zebra: the plains zebra, the mountain zebra, and the Grevy's zebra. Zebras are herbivores and primarily feed on grasses and other vegetation. They are social animals and are often found in large groups or herds. Zebras are known for their excellent eyesight and hearing, and their ability to run at high speeds in order to escape predators. They also use vocalizations and body language to communicate with each other.
