zebra stripes
African equine markings
The distinctive black-and-white banding pattern of a zebra's coat.
Extended to any similar alternating stripe pattern: zebra-stripe wallpaper.
In traffic design, zebra stripes mark pedestrian crossings—bold painted lines across a roadway.
The pattern is thought to confuse predators or biting flies, though the evolutionary purpose remains debated.
