What are zebras special features?

They have black and white stripes, theoretically if a lion (which is colorblind) is looking at a zebra in tall grass it may not see it due to the stripe formation. Zebras have excellent eyesight. It is believed that they can see in color. Like most ungulates the zebra has its eyes on the sides of its head, giving it a wide field of view. Zebras also have night vision, although not as advanced as that of most of their predators, but their hearing compensates. Zebras have great hearing, and tend to have larger, rounder ears than horses. Like horses and other ungulates, zebra can turn their ears in almost any direction. In addition to eyesight and hearing, zebras have an acute sense of smell and taste.Zebras communicate with each other with high pitched barks and whinnying.

Zebras have well-developed senses of sight, smell, and hearing. Their vision is particularly keen at night, helping them detect predators in low light conditions. Zebras also have a strong sense of smell, which they use to recognize individuals and communicate with other members of their herd. Their ears are large and can rotate independently to pick up sounds from different directions, aiding in detecting potential threats.
