The Zebra

Zebras live in Africa.
They have stripes, and love to run.
Baby zebras learn to walk
'Fore they can run and have fun.
Zebras are kin to horses.
And akin to donkeys too.
They live together in herds
And they are found in the zoo.
Zebras love to eat the grass.
They make a smooth braying sound
And they're very sensitive
To all predators around.
The zebras face extension,
But may they survive the tide -
Beating the odds against them,
Hanging in there for the ride.
