There are three species of Zebra, all native to the African continent. They differ slightly in their stripes but all have the same general shape. The Zebra's diet is mostly grass and herds will migrate hundreds of miles in search of food as the seasons bring rain or drout. When water is scarce they gather at ponds where they are often attacked by predators.

Zebra's are often food for Lions, Crocodiles, Cheetahs or Hienas.
