Answer 3

White with black stripes!

Answer 4

White with black stripes obviously

Answer 5

the male ones are white with black stripes and the female ones black with white stripes

Answer 6

Depends.We would have to accurately ascertain the average percentage of dark stripage to white stripage. Then we may (or may not) be able to state, according to the law of avarages, whether the greater percentage of one type to the next meant that this was the predominant colour and, therefore, deduce that the other colour was the auxilliary, or additional colour.
Ergo, if the greater percentage was white then the zebra would, indeed, be white with black stripes (or vice versa).
Alternately, you could get a f.U.c.King life and stop asking ridiculous questions that occur to you late at night and you can no longer bear to think about the crushing fact that no-one will sleep with you!

Answer 7

White with black stripes, you can see it by looking at their belly... it's white! all zebra's have different patterns of stripes to, not one has the same pattern as the next.

Answer 8

black with white stripes

Answer 9

To me, they look white with black stripes.

Answer 10

Black with white stripes, because they have black skin.

Answer 11

white with black stripes. Because if were balck with white stripes the white stripes would look more brown then white. Then would they still be called zebras if they were balck with brown stripes?
