    What a sweet moment to capture and great ahots! I am always happy to see zebras as they are one of my totem animals, popping up all over to remind me I am right where I am supposed to be! All the best!!

      Thanks Jane! Indeed, every zebra’s pattern is as unique as our fingerprints are. When a new foal is born, the mother will try to block all other zebras from its view until it has imprinted on her striping pattern so that it can recognise her among the herd.
