A Zebra lacking stripes

Source

I always worry that animals with albinism or unusual colour variations will be targeted by poachers, particularly if they are in the wild. These unusual animals are often featured prominently in social media. The Kruger National Park (where this zebra lives) does suffer from poaching (most often rhino) due to its huge size, but there are many security measures in place. When we went to Addo National Elephant Park recently the staff at the gate to our camp did a full search on our car before letting us in.
