People will recreate the quagga by taking zebras that naturally look like quaggas and breeding them with other zebras that look like quaggas and eventually they should have a whole herd that looks like the quagga. for more information on the quagga project visit this website --- http://www.quaggaproject.org

∙ 11y agoInterestingly enough it is now thought that the quagga was a subspecies of the plains zebra. The problem is that the genetic material for the coat pattern the quagga displayed may not exist in the remaining population of plains zebra.
If the allele(s) for the quagga coat pattern are still in the population of the
plains zebra (assuming it/they are recessively inherited) they do not appear to occur at a high enough frequency to show up even intermittently in the foals produced.
If the trait was dominant the characteristic has been eliminated from the gene pool.

Do quaggas eat meat at all?
no quaggas are part horse and part zebra. Zebras and horses are herbivores so quaggas are 100% herbivore.
What is the Quaggas diet?
Quaggas eat the same as zebras (carrots, grass, and all other vegatables.) They are vegetarians.
How can a quagga be recreated?
People will recreate the Quagga by taking zebras that naturally look like Quaggas and breeding them with other zebras that look like Quaggas and eventually they should have a whole herd that looks like the Quagga.
How Quagga can be bred from zebra's?
Selective Breeding but they might not be real because we dont know about their habits. The Most Like Quagga was born in 2005 and he is called Henry.

What are Quaggas adaptations?
the Quaggas adaptations were the special skins the sense and the ability to blend in with SOME places
How can horses be bred from zebras?
Horses can't be bred from zebras. Zebras have a different chromosome count than horses. Crossing them produces a sterile hybrid just as occurs when breeding horses and donkeys.
Can zebras and horses be bred together?
Yes.
Why should the quaggas be restored?
If we restore the quagga it would be a wonderful thing because we cannot bring back other species that are dying out. If we can restore a species we should because soon zebras (the quaggas closest relative) will be gone too!
Why shouldn't Quaggas be restored?
DNA samples are deteriorating so the bred species aren't ever going to be the pure species and the money could be used for better causes.
Why did quaggas die?
The quaggas died because they were hunted for their skin and meat
Why are both male and female zebras needed to breed quaggas?
because they want more for the lever of the Quagga and it what be the same it will sill have the blood of a zebras
