Zebras live in the savannas of Africa where they eat grass and plants. They migrate to find food and water as the grass turns yellow and dry during parts of the year without much rain. Zebras come in herds and have white bodies with black stripes, standing around 3-5 feet tall. Their stripes help them camouflage from predators like lions and hyenas as they protect their young.
