The Burchell's Zebra, also known as the Plains Zebra, is a mid-sized African ungulate. It is an adoptable animal in all three games in the Wildlife Park series.
Description[]
The Burchell's Zebra is a subspecies of Plains Zebra, which is one of three species of zebra that are indigenous to Africa, the other two being the larger Grevy's Zebra and the smaller Mountain Zebra. All species of zebra can be identified from other equids by the black-and-white striped markings across their body. Like all Plains Zebra subspecies, the Burchell's Zebra's stripes run down to its belly, but uniquely also feature fainter stripes between the main ones. The purpose of a zebra's stripes is debated, with proposed reasons including identification among individuals (as each zebra has its own unique stripe pattern), confusing predators in a herd or deterring flying insects.
The Burchell's Zebra lives on the African savannah and feeds almost exclusively on grass. They typically live in groups known as harems, consisting of a male and several females along with their young. These in turn can form other harems to become a herd.

“ | Latin name: Equus Quagga. The function of the concise black and white stripes of the plains zebra is still unknown. Perhaps they serve as a 'tag', for purposes of social recognition, or as a temperature regulator or perhaps simply to confuse predators. Zebras feed almost only on grass. This species is slightly endangered. | ” |
