Quagga mares usually had their first foal when they were three years of age. There was no defined mating season, although more foals seemed to be born from December to January. The mare underwent a 12-month pregnancy, and when she was about to give birth, the male would stand guard over her while she laid down. The newborn could stand within minutes, and within an hour, could run awkwardly, but well enough to keep up with the herd. The mother licked the foal all over to clean it after birth, but also to imprint her scent on it, so it could find her again in the herd. The foal began eating grass within a week, but kept nursing until seven to 11 months old.
