I promise this is the last zebra pic, for now.  One interesting behavior of zebras is that they stand in twos or threes in opposite directions.  Because they are largely a plains or grassland  animal, they don’t have other natural protections (like hills or mountainsides).  So, to solve that problem and make sure they have eyes in all directions looking out for the likes of lions, hyenas, hunting dogs, leopards, or cheetahs so they don’t become dinner.  Pretty ingenious if you ask me, don’t try to tell me that animals don’t learn!!!

I’m sure I’m not the only one that thinks its sweet when baby animals feed from their mamas.  It’s so sweet.  They have no idea that for the rest of their lives they will be hunted by lions, hyenas, hunting dogs, leopards, and cheetahs until they are in a corner and become someone else’s dinner. It’s so sweet.
