Wildlife Wednesday: The Remarkable Grevy’s Zebra

Out here in the Gap, it’s easy to pause and be in awe of the wildlife that surrounds us. Today, our focus is on one of the most striking and fascinating creatures you’ll ever see—the Grevy’s zebra.

At first glance, zebras may all look the same. Black and white stripes, strong stance, watchful eyes. But the beauty of the Grevy’s zebra is found in the details. No two zebras share the exact same stripe pattern. Each design is as unique as a fingerprint, carefully placed and completely one of a kind.

The Grevy’s zebra stands apart with its narrow, crisp stripes, large rounded ears, and powerful presence. These animals are resilient, intelligent, and perfectly designed for the environment they call home. Yet what truly captivates me is the reminder they offer us: even when things appear similar on the surface, every creation is intentionally different.

It’s a beautiful reflection of God’s handiwork. Each animal, each person, each living thing is made special, with purpose and individuality. We weren’t meant to blend in or be copies of one another. We were created uniquely, just as we are.

So the next time you see a zebra—or even a neighbor who seems a lot like everyone else—look closer. You’ll find a story, a design, and a purpose that belongs to them alone.

That’s the wonder of nature. And that’s the beauty of God’s creation.
