Today is International Zebra Day, and we're asking Auckland Zoo a simple question: If basic conservation info can't be kept current, even after being directly notified about the error, how can “education” be used to justify breeding zebras into confinement? 🤔 The most endangered zebra species is the Grevy's, with only around 3,000 in the wild. Support them directly by donating to the @Grevy’s Zebra Trust 🦓 Follow us for more... 👀 Image credits: Magda Ehlers, Jeff Griffith, Francesco Ungaro, A
