Zebra Game
This Zebra game give you the
opportunity to care for a zebra but its a bit like a dress up
game. But, it does give us the chance to tell you a bit about
the Zebra! The zebra is part of the horse family and they can live for up
to thirty years, although their average age is twelve years
mainly because they are hunted and killed by predators such as
hyenas and lions and, of course, humans. Grevy’s zebras are
the most populous in Africa however in the last few decades
their number has shrunk from an estimated 15,000 to just under
2,500.
Zebras are easily identified by their black and white stripes,
what is less well known is that each stripe is as distinctive
as a human fingerprint. Although their while bellies have led
some to believe that they are essentially white animals with
black stripes recent discoveries have concluded that they are
actually black with white stripes and underbellies.
