Description So this is a Quagga (kind of), a species of Zebra which became extinct in 1883.
I didn't realize until afterwards but what I've drawn is the re-created Quagga, rather than what they originally used to look like (that's what I get for not using a reference)
A group in South Africa are trying to re-create the Quagga from breeding modern day Zebra's that have less stripes - which is what I ended up drawing
The actual Quagga was pretty much completely brown with white stripes on its front end, but hey I was close XD
