Le zèbre de montagne, Equus zebra, vit, lui, dans les prairies d'altitude. Son pelage est plus lisse que celui [du zèbre de plaine], ses rayures sont plus étroites et son ventre est blanc. Le haut de sa queue est ornée d'un motif à petites rayures symétriques, qui permet de l'identifier aisément lorsqu'il est vu de la croupe. L'une des sous-espèces, Equus zebra zebra, vit en République sud-africaine dans les montagnes centrales de la province du Cap, l'autre, Equus hartmannae, le zèbre de Hartmann, se trouve en Angola et en Namibie. 1, record 2, French, - z%C3%A8bre%20de%20montagne
