Hey, It's me. Do you know why zebras have stripes?
The answer is simple - Camouflage, but it is not. Actually, the mammals that hunt can clearly see in the long coarse grass of the savanna.
- Thermoregulation has long been suggested by scientists as the function of zebra stripes. The basic idea is that black stripes would absorb heat in the morning and warm up zebras, whereas white stripes reflect light more and could thus help cool zebras as they graze for hours in the blazing sun.
- some researchers think that the stripes help them repel flies. As these flies have a monochrome vision they can`t see the zebra
Zebra`s might use its strip for any one both the reasons but it definitely makes it look cool.
