Zebras Zebras are unique-looking animals that live in Africa. They look like horses, but they are not horses. How can you tell a horse from a zebra?It's easy! lf it's covered with black and white stripes, it's definitely a zebra. Sometimes, when zebras stand together, their stripes look confusing. This helps protect them from other animals that want to eat them, like lions and cheetahs. Zebras collect in large groups called herds. A herd can have more than one thousand zebras in it. This is another way zebras protect themselves from animals that like to eat them. Within a large herd, zebras have family groups. A zebra family is made up of a father zebra, several mother zebras, and their young.
Zebras are very fast. They can run up to 56 kilometres per hour. This also helps them get away from animals that like to eat them. To us, all zebras look alike. But, they are not all alike. Each and every zebra has its own unique pattern of stripes. They really are one of a kind.
