According to a study by researchers from the World Wildlife Fund and Namibia’s Ministry of Environment and Tourism, zebra’s make a longer migration over land than any other large mammal in Africa.

Nobody knew that something of this scale, with this much ground covered, was occurring. ” <br /><br />Many animal’s migration routes are affected by land development and hunting, so experts hope the latest information about the zebra’s long distance migration will help in future environmental conservation efforts to protect the areas where the animals roam.
