The mountain zebra, Equus zebra, is found in two mountainous areas of southwestern Africa where abundant vegetation is present. All other zebra species are found in more arid parts of Africa where vegetation is sparser. The black and white striped pattern of the zebra provides disruptive coloration, or coloration that breaks up the body outline, making it difficult for a predator to single out an individual zebra while it is running with other animals in the herd.
