Z is for Zebra

As our journey through Africa continues we learned about the zebra. Some interesting facts... their ears can turn all the way around to hear what is coming in all directions and we learned that scientists believe that zebra's are black with white stripes. We learned that when zebras are standing in a herd, predators cannot visually decipher between the heat rising from the ground and the stripes.

We read these books and made these zebras by coloring white stripes first and then painting the zebra black.
