Zebra Filming can take place in two Ugandan parks namely:

• Kidepo Valley National Park. “The true wildness of Uganda”
• Lake Mburo National Park. “whispers of the wild”

Kidepo valley National park is estimated to keep around 204 individuals Zebras while in Lake Mburo National park, Zebras are the face of the park. Zebras are herbivore; they can live up to 40 years with a gestation period of 12 months and give birth to a single foal at a time that is keep away from other zebras for at least 3 days giving it time to gain its sense of sight, smell and voice recognition. They have strong teeth good enough for grinding the leaves and grass, the males have short and erect hairs and have white and black striped coats.

Lake Mburo national park is another place you can find a huge population of zebras. They are almost everywhere in this park which means a simple game drive through the park is enough for you to see lots of these beautiful animals.
How zebras live.

They often stay in small families but within bigger families or herds. Very large herds are often seen in Kidepo Valley Park. They prefer stay in herds for protection from their predators. They live in fear of the cheetahs, lions, leopards and even simple dogs. In this case if one of them is attacked by a predator, then the rest of the family will come to the rescue, make a semi-circle and face the attacker. The same thing happens when the whole family is attacked by a number of predators and it’s injured, another family will come in and help them fight off the attackers.

While still small foals, all of them tend to be so close the mothers but the male ones are closer to the fathers and at around 1-4 years, the males do leave their families and join the groups of male bachelor until they are grown enough to have their own families.
What you should know about the stripes

It’s true that there other animals with some stripes but none of them have a beautiful pattern like the Zebras. Some people believe their coat is to help them look beautiful and survive while under the African hot sun in a sense that they act sunscreen for them therefore protecting that sensitive skin of theirs.

There is an assumption that the stripe keep insects like flies and other pests off the zebras. Their stripes have been and are still a mystery as different ideas have been given explaining why zebras are really striped.

What is true however, is that there are no two zebras in this world that have the same pattern like they seem to appear when you spot zebras from far.
