It's not like the people who shared their continent with zebras for all of evolution did not try to jump on one, they certainly did. They look like horses the same way a dingo looks like a dog. | |

Instead we went wild horse to tame animal for meat (like a beef cow) to draft animal (wagons & chariots) to riding animal. Also plains zebras and mountain zebras have the same social system as Przewalski's horses and domestic horses. Grevy's zebras are the only weird ones. And if we can domesticate something as bad tempered as wild cattle or camels, zebra would be a push over. Watch this BBC News video on psycho Heck cattle: youtube.com/watch?v=RSGiwXl8jzE | |
