The basic social unit is the family group, consisting of one stallion and the mares with their young. This unit stays together, even when they congregate in bigger groups. At this stage, the stallion will spend the greater part of his time, chasing away other stallions from other family groups. Their extremely courageous animals, and very often, they confront predators like Lion, the latter sometimes coming out second best, after receiving a devastating kick from the Zebra's hooves.
