Damara Zebra Head Shot Stripes in Background at Safari West in Santa Rosa, California

I found it harder to distinguish zebra types than counting the unique stripes on a running herd. Having said that, the most common is the plains zebra, and Safari West in Santa Rosa, California, has two of the subspecies. I believe this head shot is a Burchell’s zebra, also called a Damara. They also have Grant’s zebras. The stripes of the plains zebra extends down their side and across their stomach. And don’t ask me if this is a male or female. I haven’t a clue.
