What is zebra in the site?
The quality of the zebra habitat varies according to the types of zebra. There are three types of zebras: Grevy's, Mountain and Burchell's (also known as Plains). Grevy's zebra lives in an environment including grassland and savannas. Mountain zebras live on slopes and plateaus of mountains, as stated by the name. Burchell's or zebra plains are inhabited by savannahs, short pastures, high pastures and open forests.
Grevy's zebras are larger than zebra plains. They have narrower black stripes, large round ears and white belly. This type of zebra is usually located in northern Kenya and south to southeast Ethiopia, inhabits savannas and pastures. Northern Kenya is the most common place for Plains Zebras. Plains Zebra's Habitat consists of savannas, short grass stands, high grassland and open forests. It can reach a height of 5 feet (1.5 m) high and usually gains 30 inches (76.2 cm) rain per year. Unlike high grass stands, short grasslands have short grass with approximately 10 inches (25.4 cm) rain per year, which usually stopsgrowth. As a combination of both, mixed pastures grow around 2-3 feet (0.6-0.9 m) and approach 15-25 inches (38.1-63.5 cm) rain per year.
savannahs are also common habitats for Grevs and Plains Zebras. The grass covers most of the area while the trees are widely distributed. The tree cover is only 5% to 30% of the area. The rain is abundant enough to grow grass, but not forests. The drought periods are present, causing occasional fires to escape and spread.
Open Woodland is the only type of Zebra habitat that Grevy and plains do not share. This is open forest soil with low tree density. A lot of sunlight shines, Alesota is no shadow. Grass, shrubs and herbal plants are abundant.
Mountain zebras differ because they have a robot or a flap of the skin on their neck. Wide stripes cover the Rump area. Wambia and western and southern South Africa are the most common areas where mountain zebras can be found. StIt states as the name, the Mountain Zebra station is on the slopes and plateaus in mountain areas. Different places on the mountain provide shade, changes in temperature and precipitation. As the mountain zebra moves higher, the temperature drops and the winds blow more harder. Lakes, streams and rivers provide surrounding animals with water. Depending on the zone of altitude vegetation, it will plant growth to feed mountain zebra. As the altitude increases, the plants decrease and for animals there is lower growth rate. Due to a change in altitude, there are a lower number of animals, which means less competition for food.
