I was looking through my hard drive yesterday and came across this photo. It was overexposed so I didn't give it a second glance but something told me to convert it to black and white which I think makes this shot much better and also makes it confusing for the eye.
Thanks for looking!
There was a zebra fight. We think it was for mating rights, as it was the three females fighting in front of the one male.

I was lucky enough to witness the birth of a live Grevy's Zebra (Equus grevyi) foal in the wild in 2009. Grevy's zebra is endangered, with only abou 2500 individuals remaining in the wild. The birth is described and discussed in a scientific paper published in the journal Ethology. The paper is available at www.blaircostelloe.com/Research. To my knowledge, this is the only documented observation of a wild Grevy's zebra birth to date.
The Grevy's Zebras were having a fun time chasing each other; as if they were playing tag. They would roll in the dirt and make up. These boys were having fun summer day.These photos were taken of the Grevy's Zebras at the San Diego Zoo on a sunny June day.

Umm... something isn't quite right here...
Actually, there are two new Grevy's foals grazing and gambolling up in the African Plains exhibit at Edinburgh Zoo. That makes 3 foals this year, I think, which is a great sign that the zebras are settled and content. If you watch them for a while you can predict when they're going to leap about madly on their spindly little legs - whenever mum moves too far away. I went to the zoo on Saturday specifically for these new babies and just as I got to the enclosure it started to rain really hard. Sigh. It's always the way. Photos of the foals to follow.
Thanks to Quentin Origami for the cool title!
