Kruger Nacional Park, Mapumalanga, South Africa

Zebra are iconic of Africa and have been featured in local art for more than 20,000 years. These are plains zebra (Equus quagga), the more common or widespread of the the two species we encountered. They are easy to identify as their stripes wrap all the way around their bellies. No two stripe patterns are the same. Zebra families consist of a single stallion, several mares, and their young offspring. Multiple families come together to form large herds. Ambsoseli National Park, Kenya, Africa. Conservation status: Near Threatened

Zebras regularly engage in running battles with each other and if you look closely at them you'll notice many scars from these little altercations.

the muddy river running all over the land

the grass was like a painting

the wind was warm as the trees danced

there the zebras would run around the water

like little children excited

as the sun grew warmer, one zebra stood in its light
