What colour are zebras?
View through CrossRef
Zebras are black with white stripes. The presence of stripes introduces an exceptionally assertive type of visual stimulation into the young animal’s world and this difference from other, un-striped animals is emphatically not trivial. Anyone who has watched zebras attentively will have become aware that eyes have to work overtime to accommodate to their every movement.
