Write a short composition about zebras
Zebras are mammals that live on the plains of Africa. They eat
grass and live in herds. They have four legs, are black and white
stripes and look like horses.
Lions are one of their main natural enemies, as lions will often have
them for dinner.
You can see zebras in the zoo or go on a safari in Africa.
