Plains Zebra (looking very depressed), Woburn Safari Park
19th August 2006
"The Plains Zebra (Equus quagga, formerly Equus burchelli), also known as the Common Zebra or the Burchell's Zebra, is the most common and geographically widespread form of zebra, once being found on plains and grasslands from the south of Ethiopia right through east Africa as far south as Angola and eastern South Africa.
The Plains Zebra is much less numerous than it once was, because of human activities such as hunting it for its meat and hide, as well as encroachment on much of its former habitat, but it remains common in game reserves."

While many names carved into Painted Rock are of more recent origin,some are from the first white settlers and visitors to the plain. This one, carved into the rock beneath an overhanging ledge is from 1908.
Some have claimed that it was done by the founder of Atascadero, but his name was Edward Gardner Lewis who occasionally went by E. G. Lewis. Geo. was a fairly common abbreviation for George. Possibly one of his relatives?
