Sideview of a pair of plains zebras walking in an open field in the Okavango Delta in Botswana, Africa.
Pictured is a sideview of a pair of plains zebra walking in an open field in the Okavango Delta in Botswana, Africa. Multiple termite mounds are in the background. Zebras are preyed on mainly by lions. Leopards, cheetahs, spotted hyenas, brown hyenas and wild dogs pose less of a threat to adults. Biting and kicking are a zebra's defense tactics. When threatened by lions, zebras flee, and when caught they are rarely effective in fighting off the big cats. The photograph was taken from a safari vehicle based at the Atzaro Okavango Camp. The binomial name is Equus quagga.
