The stripes reach farther down the legs-usually to below the knees. The last species is the Grant's zebra. This animal's stripes continue all the way down to the hoofs and there are rarely any shadow-stripes. The stripes of all zebras are not the same. We used information from the Internet, Christina's Critters' page and a National Geographic Explorer show for our answer.
Some zebras have thicker stripes than others and some have bolder stripes.
The Burchell's zebra has wider stripes, and the Grevy's zebra has thinner stripes. Also, the Burchell's zebra does not have stripes on its lower legs and belly. Zebras and scientists can identify different types of zebras by their stripes. The stripes are not all the same, you can look at this picture and see the difference on their right back leg. We believe these to be Grevy's zebras because they have stripes on their bellies and lower legs.
