Zebras
Described as a "horse in striped pajamas," three species of zebra inhabit Africa. They are equiids, which means they are members of the horse family and are odd-toed ungulates. Zebras inhabit tropical grasslands in sub-Saharan Africa. Social herd animals, they live in groups called harems. Their distinctive black and white stripes have made them a favorite of children for many generations.

A zebra's predator is mainly lions. Although hyenas, wild dogs, leopards, and cheetahs are their minor predators. your welcome =] Katie

How has the animal adapted to its environment?
Everything adopts itself to environment it has. In order to be favoured by nature, they some time develop some features that could help them to live easily in that environment. They become used to their habitas as well and this is called "adaptation". Organisms need to adapt changes according to the demands of nature because if they will not, they will be wiped out. Nature selects only those organisms which fit in the environment. Thus, animals in the same way, develop features which would help them to live easily in habitats, they have. For instance, polar bears have an adaption of furry coat over their body, which helps them in extreme cold weather. (RABIYA AKHTAR) DATED:10.JUNE.2009
No, zebras are not technically a type of horse, though they are both equines. Both belong to the genus Equus, which also includes donkeys, but they are separate species within that genus. Sometimes, these three different species are referred to as the "horse family," but that's not a scientific distinction.
Horses and zebras have different amounts of chromosomes; therefore, they very rarely have offspring that can also reproduce, which is one of the requirements for considering different animals part of the same species. To top it all off, zebras actually resemble donkeys more closely than they do horses.
Incidentally, when zebras and donkeys reproduce, the offspring is called a zonkey, which is unrelated but quite delightful.
