Zebras






When you think of Africa, most people think of Zebra. They are the most unique animal to me. About half-way during our night drive as the sun was setting, our driver pulled up on the bank of the old river bed. There were 20-30 Zebra grazing near us. This is where we had our snack (Coke) and took some pictures and video. The zebra were doing what they call "dusting." All of them get in circle and one zebra gets in the middle and rolls around in the dirt. Then, when that guys finished, the next one takes his turn. They circle around to protect the one in the middle.








Doesn't this baby zebra look so cute? I think this one zebra who has her head turned is saying, "Do my stripes make my backside look big?" It's got to be a woman zebra, right?! Question of the day: Is the zebra white with black stripes or black with white stripes? If you answered white with black stripes, that is the true African Zebra!
