ELUSIVE PREY

Zebras have four gaits: walk, trot, canter and gallop, like their horse cousins. They are generally slower than horses, but their great stamina helps them outrun predators. When chased, a zebra will zig-zag from side to side, making it more difficult for the predator to attack. When cornered, the zebra will rear up and kick or bite its attacker.

  • Zebras have excellent eyesight. The zebra's eyes are on the sides of its head, giving it a wide field of view. Zebras also have night vision, although not as advanced as that of most of their predators.

  • Zebras have excellent hearing and have larger, rounder ears than horses. Zebras can turn their ears in almost any direction. In addition to superb eyesight and hearing, zebras also have acute senses of smell and taste.
