Zebra: Nature’s Living Work of Art

Zebras are instantly recognizable thanks to their striking black-and-white stripes, which are as unique as fingerprints. These fascinating animals are a highlight of any zoo visit, offering a glimpse into the dynamic life of the African savanna. At the zoo, zebras live in open enclosures that replicate their natural environment, complete with grassy areas for grazing and space to run freely.

A favorite activity for visitors is watching zebras interact with each other. These social animals rely on their herd for safety and companionship, often seen grooming or playfully nipping at one another. Zookeepers provide enrichment by hiding treats around the enclosure or introducing new objects for the zebras to explore, keeping them mentally and physically active.

The zoo also educates visitors about the important role zebras play in their ecosystem, from their grazing habits that shape grasslands to their ability to detect predators. By highlighting the challenges zebras face in the wild, such as habitat fragmentation and competition with livestock, the zoo emphasizes the importance of protecting these iconic animals and their habitats.
