Burchell’s zebra (Equus burchellii)
Stocky and horse-like, Burchell zebras show considerable variation in colouration and pattering but is normally striped in black and white with a fainter “shadow” strip superimposed on the white stripe, particularly on the hindquarters. No “grid-iron” pattern on the rump and the striping extends on to the under parts. A long, erect mane extends from the top of the head to the shoulders. Striping may or may not extend to the hooves.
Shoulder height: 130 cm
