Giraffe and Elephants live alongside Zebra. Both are aware of predators before others.
Some birds also, but am not sure of the exact lookout bird species.

None that I have ever heard of Amber. The Zebra has it's own ability to realize that it is in danger, in and of itself. While it is not a perfect ability, the herd tends to work together, even though we know from research that there will be losses to the herd for a variety of reasons.

the wildebeast is the most nervous of all the antilopes and they are usually on the edges
the antilopes with the curved horns stand with their nose in the wind and the invisible spiral vortex that lies in between picks up cjhanges in vibrations ,that for exaple alerts them of galloping cheetahs towards them
other antilopes jhave huge ears that hear better ,
sio in a mixed herd wich is what the veld or pampas herds consist of ,have different experts ,and together they make up a good alarm system.

wildebeest (also called gnu) often travel with zebra. it was once thought that they alerted each other to danger but in fact they migrate together and each eats grass in a slightly different cropping way - also hanging around with other animals of simialr size makes it less likley that you individually will be eaten by a predator.

Zebras warn eachother, which is why they travel in such large groups most of the time.
