long long time ago I was walking past a zebra without the stripes and I said to my mum what is that my mum answered it's a Zebra because she said it not a horse.
An old man who works with horses wanted to disguise them, so HE through black and white paint over them and they looked so good he came up with the name Zebra.
Since that day zebras were born and thats how we know them now. Zebra's are like horses but have black and white stripes.
