Follow ungulates keeper Dion as he cares for this dazzle of zebra!

Visitors of our wonderful Zoo will know, this African savannah habitat is shared by zebra, giraffes and ostriches – and each species has its own dietary needs. Zebra are herbivores that naturally graze on grasses in the wild, occasionally nibbling on bushy leaves and stems. At our Zoo, they’re primarily fed hay, and nutritional pellets.

Our amazing ungulates team ensure that each species gets the appropriate diet they need for their optimal health. Watch the video and let us know what you learnt!
