🎉 Fun facts:

Graceful Zebras and Speedy Ostriches in the African Grasslands

💡
Zebras, with their striking black and white stripes, move gracefully across the golden grasslands of Africa. These unique stripes serve as a defense mechanism, confusing predators and making it difficult for them to single out one zebra from a group. Zebras are social animals, often forming groups called harems, led by a single stallion. They communicate through various vocalizations, facial expressions, and body postures.
💡
Nearby, ostriches, the largest flightless birds, walk confidently across the plains. Despite their inability to fly, ostriches are incredibly fast runners, capable of reaching speeds up to 45 miles per hour. Their long, powerful legs enable them to cover great distances quickly, making them one of the fastest animals on two legs. Ostriches have excellent eyesight, allowing them to spot predators from far away and giving them ample time to escape.
