Dig into the scientific theories of why zebras have stripes, and why this unique patterning sets them apart from their equine relatives.--Zebras belong to the same equine family as horses and donkeys. After their lineage entered Africa, they evolved into three zebra species, lived in social herds, grazed on grasses, and evaded fierce predators. One mystery that has perplexed prominent scientists for decades is the matter of their coats: why are they striped? Cella Wright digs into the common theories about the unique patterning.Lesson by Cella Wright, directed by Sharon Colman.Support Our Non-Profit Mission----------------------------------------------Support us on Patreon: http://bit.ly/TEDEdPatreonCheck out our merch: http://bit.ly/TEDEDShop----------------------------------------------Connect With Us----------------------------------------------Sign up for our newsletter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdNewsletterFollow us on Facebook: http://bit.ly/TEDEdFacebookFind us on Twitter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdTwitterPeep us on Instagram: http://bit.ly/TEDEdInstagram----------------------------------------------Keep Learning----------------------------------------------View full lesson: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/the-surprising-reason-zebras-have-stripes-cella-wrightDig deeper with additional resources: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/the-surprising-reason-zebras-have-stripes-cella-wright/digdeeperAnimator's website: https://www.sharoncolman.com----------------------------------------------Thank you so much to our patrons for your support!
