This is a very busy road so please take care - there is a pull out close to the park and grab. The Owners have given permissin for the cache to be here but please be respectful. No need to cross the cedar fence.
Sadly the original container & a couple of replacements have gone missing, so here is another replacement, let's see how long it lasts.
Our planet is home to three different species of zebra, the plains zebra, Grevy’s zebra and mountain zebra, and all three species are native to Africa.
Zebras are closely related to horses, with thick bodies, thin legs, a tufted tail, and a long head and neck sporting a short mane. And their most famous feature? Their brilliant black-and-white striped coat, of course!
So why do zebras have stripes? Well, scientists aren’t entirely sure. Their stripes perhaps serve to dazzle and confuse predators and biting insects, or to control the animal’s body heat. Because each individual’s stripes are unique, their stripes may also have a social purpose, helping zebras to recognise one other.
Hope you recognize our zebra here!
