101. Pictures, Photos Of Zebras
     zebras often form mixed herds with antelopes, such as wildebeests, which gain protection from predators by the alertness of the zebras.  
     http://www.shunya.net/Pictures/Animals/Zebras.htm
     
     Extractions: Zebra Any of three species of strikingly black-and-white-striped mammals of the horse family Equidae and genus Equus: Burchell's zebra ( E. quagga ), found in rich grasslands over much of eastern and southern Africa; Grevy's zebra ( E. grevyi ), of arid, sparsely wooded areas in parts of Kenya, Ethiopia, and Somalia; and the mountain zebra ( E. zebra ), of dry upland plains in Namibia and a few scattered areas in western South Africa. Zebras stand 120-140 cm tall and are easily distinguished by the pattern of stripes. These are individually wide and widely spaced in Burchell's zebra, some races of which have lighter “shadow stripes” between the main stripes. The northern races of this species are more fully striped than the southern ones, in which the striping of the lower legs tends to give way to white. The stripes of Grevy's zebra are narrow and closely spaced, and the belly is white. The mountain zebra is small and has a peculiar grid like pattern of stripes on the rump. Zebras live in small family groups consisting of a stallion and several mares with their foals. In Grevy's zebra the mares may form separate groups from the stallions. With plentiful food, small groups may coalesce into large herds, but the smaller groups retain their identities. Zebras often form mixed herds with antelopes, such as wildebeests, which gain protection from predators by the alertness of the zebras. Herds may migrate long distances to find suitable grasses on which to feed. All three zebra species have decreased in abundance through human activities, and the mountain zebra and Grevy's zebra are endangered. The readiness with which most zebras breed in captivity offers hope of maintaining reservoirs of zebras from which wild populations might be restored. [– Adapted from

     Extractions: Introduction (for non-physicians) Top When you hear hoofbeats behind you, don't expect to see a zebra. Theodore E. Woodward, MD If you don't recognize this saying or don't understand its meaning, then this web site is not for you. For those who persist, however, here's an explanation. Zebra is medical slang. Loosely, zebra means a rare, unusual, or surprising disease or condition. The word acquired this meaning because of the quotation above, which is frequently used in medical teaching. For reasons I explain in the hard copy version of Zebra Cards, physicians naturally tend to make the diagnosis of a rare or unusual disease too frequently. For example, although malaria causes fever and chills, a physician in the United States would be foolish indeed to rank malaria as the most likely cause of a random patient's fever and chills. This is an extreme example, to be sure, but in less extreme situations it can be very tempting to leap to the dramatic, unusual diagnosis, particularly in a difficult case. It is customary, therefore, to warn physicians-in-training about this tendency, and to do it using the quotation at the top of this page. The quotation is simply a colorful way of saying that common diseases are what physicians almost always encounter in practice. (In the United States, the sound of hoofbeats is most commonly made by horses, not zebras.)

According to the producer, " Zebras exploits an integral aspect of meaning: antonymy (oppositeness) presented in meaningful identical contexts." The software offers an individualized environment for practice with opposite words with three different levels of difficulty (Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced/Native Speaker) and a bonus section with quotations from the Bible. In each level, there are units which a user can select with no specific sequence to follow. As with most contemporary vocabulary software programs, Zebras includes a scoring feature to encourage competition and student motivation.

Zebras, generating trees and previous constructions A parallelogram polyomino is a translation invariant array of unit squares bounded by two lattice paths that use the steps, (0,1) and (1,0), and that intersect only initially and finally. The semiperimeter of a polyomino is the length of either of these paths; the width of a polyomino is the number of its columns. We will consider parallelogram polyominoes consisting of black and white columns, called zebras . Barcucci, Del Lungo, Fezzi, and Pinzani [ ] showed that R n n -1)counts the set of zebras with semiperimeter n . In the following we denote the cardinality of any set A A Z , the semiperimeter of a zebra P by n P P in Z n P n Z n Z Before proceeding we recall from [ ] the definition of a generating tree for a set of succession rules: A generating tree is a rooted, labeled tree in which the labels of the set of children of each node x are determined solely from the label of x . Thus, any particular generating tree can be specified by a set of succession rules, i.e., a recursive definition, consisting of (the basis) the label of the root

112. Rec.equestrian FAQs
     Different social system than horses or other zebras probably makes Grevy s males Quaggas were also one of the most spectacularly beautiful zebras.  
     http://www.horse-country.com/faqs/zebras.html
     
     Extractions: Back to FAQ index From: jespah@carson.u.washington.edu (Kathleen Hunt) Subject: Re: Zebras Date: 3 Dec 1993 20:54:22 GMT Organization: University of Washington, Seattle Just thought I'd point out to everyone that making blanket statements about "zebras" is always unreliable because there are 3 completely different species of zebras out there, and each of the three has (or had) many subspecies. The 3 species are: 1. The Grevy's Zebra is the large zebra with the very skinny, almost dizzying vertical stripes, and huge round ears. Grevy's has been called the most domesticatable zebra. Though it's larger, more powerful than the plains zebra, it's easier to train. ("Within a few weeks of capture I have inspanned them to pull well and steadily" wrote one trainer) One behavioral trait of the Grevy's is that in the breeding season, stallions do *not* have harems. Instead, each stallion is highly territorial, defending a little patch of land, and trying to mate with any females that happen to come cruising through. Different social system than horses or other zebras...probably makes Grevy's males interesting to deal with. 2. Plains zebra and quagga The extinct Quagga (probably a subspecies of the plains zebra) was probably the most trainable zebra of all. Captive quaggas were very tame, and a pair of quaggas were used in harness in London in the 1800's. They were occasionally used as driving animals in South Africa back then, and were also used as guards for horses and sheep, since quaggas were very bold at chasing off predators. Quaggas were also one of the most spectacularly beautiful zebras. They were overhunted...the last mare died in 1872...(gnashing of teeth) The common Plains Zebra can be domesticated but it's pretty tricky. A good trainer can train them, though. They have been used as harness animals. They are easy keepers. They're said to be more intelligent than mules or donkeys, which may be where they get their reputation for being difficult to train. (This is the "typical zebra" with medium-width vertical stripes, and broad horizontal stripes on the rump) "A photograph exits of a plains zebra four-in-hand pulling a two-wheeled Cape cart" says this little book here. "More often plains zebras were inspanned with mules. Presumably the mules exerted a steadying influence..." Or how about this setup: A lead pair of mules, and then 4 plains zebras, 3 more mules and a donkey, all pulling a four-wheeled coach! What a sight! "They pull well and a very willing...they are perfectly amenable to the bridle...they never kick [but] when first handled...they have an inclination to bite." Or this hitch: two oxen, two elands (!), two plains zebras, and two mules. Belonged to Carl "Bring 'em back alive" Hagenbeck. I think that's the same Hagenbeck mentioned in the previous post, founder of a German zoo, also involved in bringing Przewalski's horses in from the wild (this ended up saving the species when the wild ones all died out). 3. The third species is the Mountain Zebra. Yes, believe it or not, these are mountain-specialized zebras that bound around on the alpine slopes like little mountain goats. They are smaller, and are recognizable by their little dewlap under the neck (among other things). They are least suitable for training, partly because their conformation makes them poor riding or driving animals, and partly because ones captured from the wild are difficult to tame, being especially rowdy and resistant. If you trained one as a foal, though, who knows? There is one photo of a tame mountain zebra stallion being ridden sidesaddle by a woman in elegant formal attire (all black looks magnificent against the zebra's coat!) So there you have it. Much of this info came from MacClintock's "A Natural History of Zebras". Kathleen Back to FAQ index

     Extractions: Zebras Zebras from How to Get a Head Without Hunting Click here to see a larger image Our artist/proprietor Merikay makes zebras in several sizes. This Large Zebra head sculpture is built upon a hand-made, lightweight base. Its stripes are hand-cut from fake fur, and its brilliant eyes are hand-cast, painted, and glazed. The included wire loop makes it easy to hand on any wall. It can be a focal point of your safari decor, or simply a unique accent in any home or office. Zebras live in Africa and are quite social, gathering in herds of up to several hundred animals. Like their close relative the horse, zebras are nomadic and graze on grasses. No one knows what advantage stripes are for zebras. They may simply be an esthetic, visual preference to members of the opposite sex, like a pretty face or great body among people. Click here to see a larger image Our Medium Zebra head sculpture is also based on a hand-made sculpture, covered with carefully-cut strips of faux fur. Our artist/proprietor cast, paints, and glazes the large gleaming brown eyes by hand. A wire hook is built into the back for easy wall mounting. This size Zebra goes well in any room size. An ideal gift for anyone who likes zebras, especially if that person is you!
