Detailed explanation-1: -Where do plains zebras live? They have a wide range in east and southern Africa. They usually live in treeless grasslands and savanna woodlands and are absent from deserts, rainforests, and wetlands. This species’ habitat is shrinking, however, and they are now extinct in Burundi and Lesotho.
Detailed explanation-2: -Zebras are equids – members of the horse family (Equidae) and are medium sized, odd-toed ungulates. Zebras are native to southern and central Africa. Although zebras are very adaptable animals as far as their habitats are concerned, most zebras live in grasslands and savannas.
Detailed explanation-3: -Zebra legs are long and slender, and very strong, which enables them to run up to 40 miles per hour to escape predators in a hunt. Striped markings on a zebra break up their outline, making it difficult for predators to hone in on an individual zebra amongst a herd.
Detailed explanation-4: -Plains zebras live in the treeless grasslands and woodlands of eastern and southern Africa. The Grevy’s zebra lives in the arid grasslands of Ethiopia and northern Kenya.
Detailed explanation-5: -The Common Plains Zebras These residents of the savannah are a common sight on the Serengeti-Mara plains of Kenya and Tanzania. It’s estimated that more than 700, 000 individual common zebras live in the wild, a number that dwarfs the populations of the other zebra species.
