Giraffes are warm-blooded animals in general. During the cold climatic conditions, they tend to move towards more private areas in order to keep themselves warm. However they are mostly content with a calm are serene environment to stay alive for a long time.

Since Zebras are found in the savannas of southern Afica where in the dry seasonit is quite hot and humid, keeping warm is not necessarily a problem. It's keeping cool in the scorching heat which they do by swimming in watering holes.

They use their black and white stripes to stay cool. It has been scientificly proven that the combination of two colours, black and white, to covert immense heat into a cool soothing breeze. It has also been found that if the sun rays are shinig intensly, that Lions and any other big cats are Blinded.

The black stripes can be up to 10 degrees hotter than the white stripes. This causes the air to move across the surface of the zebra's skin therefore cooling the zebra down.

Yes, Gazelles like to stay in warm areas. Gazelles often like to stay warm because they have special features (like camels) which can withstand the hot heat.

There isn't much a zebra can do to protect itself in bad weather, as they tend to live in open grassland.
