With its unique striped coat, the zebra is one of the most iconic animals of the African savannah. Each individual has a different stripe pattern, like a fingerprint, that allows it to be identified. These stripes are also thought to play a protective role, disrupting the vision of predators or repelling certain biting insects. The zebra is a sociable herbivore that lives in herds. Always on the lookout, it relies on its keen hearing and speed to escape lions and hyenas. Surprisingly, when sleeping, a zebra often rests its head on its neighbour's back to stay alert and keep an eye on its surroundings. This Papo figurine faithfully reproduces the male zebra: slender silhouette, upright mane and detailed striped coat. A must-have model to complete a collection of wild animals, recreate savannah scenes or educate children about the richness of African wildlife.
