the same colors of the same species all over the world. No matter
where you go, the color of kiwis are green, the seasare blue or tints
of blue and the snow is white. The color of elephants is the same
everywhere in the world; the colors of trees is also the same. This
situation does not change for artificially produced colors. No matter
where you go in the world, if you mix yellow with red, and black and
white, you getorange and gray respectively. This also never changes.
The blackand white stripes of zebras are like this. The common
specialty of zebras living in different parts of the world is their
black and white stripes. These stripes, which have different wonders,
provide great benefits for zebras.
· Have you ever thought why zebras have black and white stripes?
· What could be the wonder of the stripes these beings possess?
Most zebras live in open places where there is not much place to hide.
Therefore, they need to be able to move very quickly in order to
survive.All the bodily structures of zebras are created in a way as to
provide for these needs.
Zebra, which remind people of horses at first glance, have long hairs
called a mane; their physical structure is also created quite similar
to horses and they run at least as fast as them. Zebras have very long
legs, strong muscles and lungs with broad surfaces which help these
beings torun long distances withoutgetting exhausted and being forced
to slow down. Even though zebras' bones are light, they are strong and
created specially for running fast. However, one of the most
interesting characteristics of zebras is their fur, which is made up
of black and white stripes.
Zebras' stripes help them camouflage:
One of the most importantdefense tactics in animals is, no doubt,
camouflage. Beings with camouflage ability are under special
protection because of theirbody structure having been created in a
compatible way to their living environment. The bodies of these beings
are very compatible with theirliving environment. The striped patterns
on zebras have an inherent camouflage ability and help them hide
against their enemies in nature. Asit is known, zebras live in
tall-grass pastures called savannas. It is very difficult to
distinguish zebras inside these tall-grass pastures; the stripes
appear as shadows of pastures and prevent the bulk of the animal's
body from beingseen clearly.
Claiming that this amazingcamouflage system of zebras has come into
existence by coincidences is, of course, an unscientific and
irrational claim. If there is an order, it naturally has a regulator.
The flawless order on Earth belongs to Almighty Allah, the Merciful.
What rational people need to do is to think about Allah's creation in
detail. Almighty Allah reveals thistruth in Surat an-Nahl as such:
" And also the things of varying colours He has created for you in
the earth. There is certainly a Sign in that for people who pay heed.
" (Surat an-Nahl, 13)
Zebras' stripes are an important tool of defense:
Zebras' colors are one of their most important defense mechanisms.
When they stand together,the predatory animals thattypically hunt
them see the complete herd as a whole due to these stripes. In this
case, the hunter finds it difficult to choose the individual zebra it
will hunt, and this is a protection for zebras. At the same time, when
they stroll around as a herd, when their patterns are next to one
another, they appear as a block. The predators that want to hunt these
beings cannot focus on them.
