Today marks International Zebra Day, a special occasion dedicated to celebrating the striped beauties of the wild. Wildlife enthusiasts around the globe are expressing pride and admiration for these precious creatures that grace the planet.

The Kenya Wildlife Service highlights the remarkable strength of zebras, stating, “Did you know that a zebra’s powerful hind legs can deliver a kick strong enough to break a predator’s jaw? They can also run at speeds of up to 65 km/h to escape danger! Conservation and peaceful coexistence are key to safeguarding zebras and their habitats. Let’s ensure that future generations will also be dazzled by these iconic stripes. Karibu, Tutunze Punda Milia Wetu Pamoja.”

In addition to their beauty, zebras are full of fascinating quirks. Each zebra boasts a unique stripe pattern, which scientists believe aids in camouflage, temperature regulation, and even repelling insects! Their wide-set eyes grant them an expansive field of vision, allowing them to spot predators from a distance. Interestingly, zebras also sleep in shifts, with one zebra on guard while the others rest.

Communication among zebras is another intriguing aspect of their behavior. They use a combination of sounds, facial expressions, and ear movements to convey their feelings. A happy zebra pricks its ears forward, while a grumpy one lays them flat!
