A zebra grows in its mothers belly for about one uear The she is ready to give birth A mother Zebra gives birth alone
Foals can walk and run within one hour of being born Zebra foals are born feet first They flop onto the ground Their mother licks them clean Foals try to stand right away They take their first steps on wobbly legs
