Wildlife
The plains zebra (Equus quagga, formerly Equus burchellii), also known as the common zebra or Burchell's zebra, or locally as the " quagga " (not to be confused with the extinct subspecies), is the most common and geographically widespread species of zebra.
Recorded year-round
Recorded in every month, so no month is the wrong month to look. We would rather say that than invent a best time.
Curve from 9,066 national iNaturalist observations, not from one property. Single-month spikes are discarded as upload artefacts, and below 50 records we show no curve at all.

Donkerder maande is elke park se eie beste seisoen, wanneer yl bos of skaars water dit makliker maak om te kyk. 'n Waarneming is nooit gewaarborg nie.

Elke bespreking op Spekboom ondersteun bewaring.
'n Aantekening beteken 'n gasheer het die Plains Zebra op die eiendom of naby gesien. Dit is nooit 'n waarborg van 'n waarneming nie.
Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Plains Zebra at stays in or beside Phinda Private Game Reserve, Kruger National Park, Sabi Sand Game Reserve, Amakhala Game Reserve, Gondwana Game Reserve and Timbavati Private Nature Reserve and other reserves. A record means a host has seen it on the property or nearby, which makes these the places to base yourself; it is never a guarantee of a sighting on any given day.
The Plains Zebra is most recorded in Mpumalanga (24% of records), KwaZulu-Natal (21% of records), Limpopo (16% of records), based on 9 066 iNaturalist observations. 55 places to stay on Spekboom in South Africa have recorded the Plains Zebra on site or nearby.
The Plains Zebra is recorded throughout the year, so no month is the wrong month to look for it. For the parks where hosts record it most, these are the best seasons they give. Phinda Private Game Reserve: year-round, dry season May-Sep; Kruger National Park: Apr-Sep; Sabi Sand Game Reserve: year-round, dry season May-Sep optimal; Amakhala Game Reserve: year-round, best Mar-May, Sep-Nov. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.
