A fun and engaging explanation of how zebras use their tails to swish away flies, perfect for young children.
A zebra is a special animal that looks a lot like a horse but has black and white stripes. These stripes help zebras blend into their home in the grasslands.
Zebras have long tails that are very useful. One important job of a zebra's tail is to swish and wave!
When zebras swish their tails, it helps to keep flies away. Flies are tiny bugs that like to buzz around. They can bother zebras, just like how little bugs can bother us! By swishing their tails, zebras can make the flies go away and feel more comfortable.
Sometimes, when a zebra swishes its tail really fast, it looks like it's dancing! Isn’t that fun? So, next time you see a zebra, remember its swishing tail does a great job keeping pesky flies away!
