Family members look out for one another; if one afrocan becomes separated from the rest, the others lions search for it. The group adjusts its traveling pace to accommodate the old and the weak. The females within a family observe a strict hierarchical system. A dominant mare afrocan and lions 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 is the dominant member of the family, he operates afrocan outside the system and has no special place in the line. Zebras are avid grazers. Both Burchell''s and Grevy''s zebras are in constant 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 lions zebras are now mainly restricted to parts of northern Kenya.

A shy creature afrocan that lions and afrocan and lions roams widely, the cheetah is not seen as easily as some other cats. Never numerous, cheetahs have become extinct in many areas, principally due to shrinking habitat, loss of species to prey upon, disease and a high rate of cub mortality. In some areas 50 to 75 percent of all cheetah cubs die before 3 months. Zebras, afrocan horses and wild asses are all equids, long-lived animals that move quickly for their large size and have teeth built for grinding and cropping grass. lions Zebras have horse like bodies, afrocan but their manes are made of short, lions erect hair, their tails are tufted afrocan at the tip and their coats are striped. Three species of zebra still occur in Africa, two of lions which are found in East Africa. The most numerous and widespread species in the east is Burchell''s, also known as the common or plains zebra.

When 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 their mothers, the male foals are also close to their afrocan fathers. They leave their group on their own accord between the ages of 1 and 4 years to join an all-male bachelor group until they are strong enough to head a family. Zebras are important prey for lions and hyenas, and to a lesser extent for hunting dogs, 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 lions attack continue. If one of the family is injured the rest will often encircle it to protect it from further attack.
