Grevy's Zebra


The Grevy's Zebra (Equus grevyi), sometimes known as the Imperial Zebra is a species of zebra. It is found in the wild in Kenya and Ethiopia and is considered endangered. Compared to other zebras it is tall and has large ears, and its stripes are narrower.

The species is named after Jules Grevy, a president of France who in the 1880s was given one by Abyssinia.
