Why Do Zebras Have Black-and-White Stripes?
Zebras are special animals that look like horses but have black and white stripes all over their bodies.
You might wonder why they have these stripes. One big reason is to keep biting flies away!
Biting flies are tiny insects that can bother animals by biting them. When flies see the stripes, it confuses them and makes it hard for them to land on the zebra.
Think of the stripes like a magic pattern that helps zebras stay safe and comfy by stopping the flies from biting them.
Isn’t it cool how nature gives zebras these stripes to help protect them?
