One amazing fact about the zebra’s stripes is that no two zebras are exactly the same as they seem to be when seen from a far. Although these stripes have inspired a number of fashion trends across the world, for the zebra that “wears” them naturally they are more for protection. The stripes are a type of camouflage that enables the zebras to hide from predators such as lions. It is very difficult for a predator to differentiate one zebra from another in a herd. Some people are of the view the stripes act as a sunscreen for the zebras, protection for their sensitive skin perhaps? There’s also speculation that they scare away insects. The zebra’s stripes have long been a mystery and there are so many ideas and speculations as to why the zebra is striped.
