EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a heartwarming moment between a Burchells zebra mother and her foal at a serene watering hole in the vast open plains of eastern Africa. Known as the plains zebra, these wild horses roam freely in herds that can consist of several hundred individuals, with each herd claiming its own territory spanning several square kilometers. The zebra's gestation period lasts approximately one year, and once born, the foal remains under the watchful eye of its mother within their herd. While this beautiful creature serves as an important prey animal for large carnivores like lions, it possesses remarkable speed and endurance to outrun them over long distances. If cornered, zebras are not afraid to put up a powerful fight.
