Zebras are a kind of horse. They walk, trot, canter, and gallop just as horses do. Zebras live only in
Africa. There are three species (kinds) of zebras: Grévy’s zebra, the mountain zebra, and the plains zebra
(also known as Burchell’s zebra). Each kind of zebra has its own pattern of stripes. And you can tell
individual zebras apart. No two zebras have exactly the same stripes.
Some scientists think zebra stripes act as protection. Zebras like to hang out together in groups. When
zebras are feeding together, the stripes can confuse an attacking animal. The stripes make it hard for a lion or
hyena to pick out one zebra in the crowd. The stripes also break up the zebra’s outline and make zebras hard
to see at a distance. Other scientists think zebras can tell each other apart by their stripes. The stripes might
help zebras find family members and friends. The Grévy’s zebra has narrow stripes set closely together. The
mountain zebra has wider stripes. The plains zebra has the widest stripes of all. The plains zebra also has
stripes that wrap around from its back to its belly Each species of zebra has a different pattern of stripes.. The
other two kinds of zebras have white bellies. The plains zebra sometimes has faint gray stripes between the
black stripes on its sides.
Zebras are usually smaller than horses. The mountain zebra is the smallest zebra. These zebras are
about 4 feet (about 1.2 meters) high at the shoulders. Plains zebras are slightly larger. Grévy’s zebra is the
largest zebra. It stands about 5 feet (about 1.5 meters) high at the shoulder. Zebras have manes that stick
straight up from their necks. A zebra’s tail is shorter than a horse’s tail. Zebras  can hear very well. They turn
their ears and big eyes toward the source of any sound. They are always on the lookout for danger. How
zebras hold their ears helps to show what mood they are in. A zebra that flicks its ears back and forth is upset.
Zebras do not have a very good sense of smell. However, they can smell smoke. Smoke might mean the
grassland where they live is on fire.
Like other members of the horse family, zebras are grazing animals. They feed on coarse grass.
Zebras have chisel-shaped teeth at the front of the mouth to bite off the grass and large molars (back teeth) for
grinding up food. Zebras spend over half their time eating. In a single day, a herd of zebras may wander more
than 12 miles (20 kilometers) in search of food. While some zebras have their heads down munching on
grass, others are on the lookout for danger. Some zebras also stand lookout while other zebras lie down and
sleep.
Zebras form small family units. A zebra female, or mare, is pregnant for about 12 months. She
usually gives birth to one foal at a time. The newborn foal feeds on its mother’s milk for up to a year.
The family units of the plains and mountain zebra are very stable. An adult male, or stallion, heads the family.
A family can have up to six adult females or mares. The mares often remain in the group for life. The stallion
helps protect all the mares and foals in the family unit. Sometimes a younger male may drive out the stallion.
When the animals are on the move, the oldest mare is first in line, followed by her foals. The other mares and
foals line up behind by age. The stallion brings up the rear.

The Amazing Taj Mahal In India

Taj Mahal is regarded as one of the eigth wonders of the world. It was built by a Muslim Emperor
Shah Jahan in the memory of his dear wife at Agra.

Taj Mahal is a Mausoleum that houses the grave of Queen Mumtaz Mahal. The mausoleum is a
part of a vast complex comprising of a main gateway, an elaborating garden, a mosque (to the left),
a guest house (to the rigth) and several other palatial buildings. The Taj is the farthest end of this
complex, with the river Jamuna behind it.

The Taj stands on a raised, square platform (186 x 186 feet) with its four corners truncated,
forming an unequal octagon. The architectural design uses the interlocking arabesque concept,in
which each element stand on its own and perfectly integrates with the main structure. It uses the
principles of self-replicating geometry and a symmetry of architectural elements.

Its central dome is fifty-eight feet in diameter and rises to a height of 213 feet. It is flanked by four
subsidiary domed chambers. The four graceful, slender minarets are 162.5 feet each. The central
domed chamber and four adjoining chambers include many walls and panels of Islamic
decoration.

Taj Mahal is built entirely of white marble. Its stunning architectural beauty is beyond adequate
