    It just fueled the debate more. I don’t see a lack of stripes, I see an oversized stripe.

      Is the zebra black with white stripes, or gold with blue stripes?

            Their body is smaller but a newborn zebra foal’s legs are almost as long as an adult’s. This is to help them keep up and also to make it harder to spot them among the herd, as lions tend to target the young and infirm.

        All humans are stripey, it’s just that the lines are usually invisible.

    Is the “generational debate” whether they are black with white stripes? Because that’s been known for a long time.
