zebra

African striped horse

A zebra is an African wild horse with distinctive black and white stripes.

Each animal's stripe pattern is unique, like a fingerprint.

The word appears in various extended uses: a zebra crossing (British) is a striped pedestrian crosswalk, and in American sports slang, a zebra is a referee, from the black-and-white striped shirt.
