 Family members look out for one another; if one becomes separated from the rest, the others search for it. The group adjusts its traveling pace to accommodate the afridan old and the weak. The females within a family observe a strict hierarchical system. A dominant mare always leads the group, while others follow her in single file, each with their foals directly behind them. The lowest- ranking mare is the last in line. Although the stallion grey is the dominant member parrot of the family, he operates outside the afridan system grey and has no special place in the line. Zebras are avid grazers. Both parrot Burchell''s and Grevy''s zebras are in constant afridan search of green pastures. In the dry season, they can live on coarse, dry grass only if they are within a short distance (usually no farther than 20 miles away) of water holes. Grevy''s zebras are now mainly restricted to parts grey of northern Kenya. When parrot a foal is born the mother keeps all other zebras (even the members of her family) away from it for 2 or 3 days, until it learns to recognize her by sight, voice and smell. While all foals have a close association with afridan their mothers, grey the male foals are also close to their fathers. They leave their group on their own accord between the ages of 1 and 4 years to join an all-male parrot bachelor group until they are strong enough to head a family. Zebras are important prey for lions afridan and hyenas, and to a lesser extent for hunting dogs, grey leopards and cheetahs. When a family group is attacked, the members form a semicircle, face the predator and watch it, ready to bite or strike should the attack continue. If one of parrot the family is afridan and grey injured the rest will often encircle it to protect it from further attack parrot. If you are looking for african animals then look no further.
