Black and white, unless you buy a cheap knock off zebra from eBay.

I'm pretty sure they're black with white stripes.

I sat on the train the other week with a hippy who had a Raindeer Skin, a Zebra Skin and another undisclosed Skin in bin bags. The bloke offered me "something to cheer me up" but I refused.. Jolly fella, collected these things of a Yacht in Poole Harbour and going back to Haslemere he was..

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zebra#Stripes

It was previously believed that zebras were white animals with black stripes, since some zebras have white underbellies. Embryological evidence, however, shows that the animal's background color is black and the white stripes and bellies are additions.

And another useless fact: they fart when they run as they struggle to get rid of the gas build up in their stomach from the grass they eat, but as they run it 'jogs' the gas out of them.

Did you read it properly, he's Surrounded By Zulus, not Surrounded By Zebras.

I go past zebras on my training run. And antelopes and llamas. I can state they are most certainly striped. All the zebras have different stripe patterns also and they can recognise each other by them. They also have stripes so they blend into each for camoflage. Makes it harder for mean beasties to pick one off. I also wouldnt go done tussel with a zebra either coz they are well nails.
