One of those sightings you don’t expect to see. While following a small herd of Plains zebra, we noticed something extraordinary moving closely beside one of the mares - a nearly all-white zebra foal.

This rare appearance is most likely the result of leucism, a genetic condition where pigment cells fail to develop properly, leaving the foal with little to no striping. Only a handful of such cases have been recorded across Africa, making this an exceptionally uncommon sighting. Despite its unusual colouring, the foal remained safely tucked beside its mother, occasionally nudging her as they grazed and moved slowly across the savannah. The herd itself was relaxed, ears flicking and heads lifting occasionally to scan their surroundings before settling back into feeding.

The lack of stripes may come with challenges. Zebra markings help with camouflage, temperature regulation, and even deterring biting insects - advantages this young foal may not fully benefit from. For now, its greatest protection remains the herd itself - a reminder that while nature can be unpredictable, it is also deeply resilient.
