On the other hand Democrats and Communists are Red with Red stripes.

Don’t the black stripes end towards the middle of the belly?

It's amazing how the hairs know what color to be depending on what part of the body they are on.

Zebras developed the stripes so they would blend in with the environment and be invisible to predators.

All I know is an embarrassed zebra, like a newspaper, is black and white and re(a)d all over.

They’re actually purple, they’re just covered in black and white stripes.

Zebras live in grasslands an Savannas...as in the previously posted image.

Doesn't look like blending with the local environment....looks pretty darn bold to me.

It’s not actually for camoflauge, it’s so predators can’t get a visual lock on an individual within a herd.

Everyone knows that zebras are black and those white stripes are oppressing them.
