Question from Garrett M. (HMS pd. 8)
Do zebras leave their parents (leave the herd)? If so, how old are the zebras when they leave?
Grevy's Zebra Foals stay with the mother for 2-3 years. If they are a boy they may join a bachelor herd. If they are a girl they may be herded by another boy and become part of a new family and start their own.
