How can you tell the different types of zebra apart?
There are three principal types of zebra – the plains, mountain and Grevy’s zebra. The plains zebra, located in the African grasslands, is the most frequent of all three species. It is striped all over and its stripes are wider than those of the other two species. Mountain zebras are native to the mountainous regions of southwest Africa. They have a white belly. Grevy’s zebra is the largest of the zebra species. It has a mane that stands up straight, large ears and narrow, carefully set stripes that extend all the way down to its hooves.
