Recently, I read an article on South Africa’s News24 about the latest hypothesis on why Zebras have stripes. Long story short, apparently “blood-feeding flies shun stripey surfaces and prefer instead to land on uniform colours.”
I don’t know when this latest science will be replaced by another, but in the meantime I’ll be the strange-looking American dressed like a football referee in the bush.
Happy Over-the-Hump Day, Readers! Hope you’ve enjoyed these couple zebra photos we took in Kruger National Park last winter.
Love, Marla
