Description
Name: Connie
Nick Name: Con
Gender: Mare
Age: 6 Years
Breed: Chapman's Zebra
Subspecies: Equus quagga chapmani
Phenotype: Mismark Zebra
Genotype: ee/aa/DzDz/ZchZch

Background: Connie was an illegally trafficked animal, brought over by ship without permit. She was confiscated once found, but due to a few injuries she received during her voyage was not eligible to be released into the wild. Despite the care given an infection to her back leg caused her a continuous limp. Connie will be in the Verlou Zoo Savannah Safari exhibit now that she has recovered.
She is not halter trained.

Dz, or zebra(on dun locus), causes the extreme dilution that is the white. Zch is the modifier of Dz that causes the unique Chapman's zebra striping, the Chapman is a subspecies of the Plains Zebra.

Breeding Slots
Available for 100 points or Art(determined by artistic level) (20% chance for dense stripes, 80% normal stripes)
Five slots are available to horses and donkeys.
Five slots are available only for Plains zebra relatives

Drawing Zebras
A lot of people seem to have problems drawing zebras. Here are two simple tips. The ears are Rounded. Don't give a zebra horse ears, then its just a horse with stripes. Don't give them a horse tail either, they have a long scrubby tail with fluff on the end.
Unique Stripes are the identifying markers, if you don't draw them then you are just drawing a random zebra with the same color pallate. Unique stripes are the ones that merge together or split off. Like Zigzag's hip stripes, the ones all merged together, and the stripes on his cheek and forehead. These stripes are like the white markings on a horse, if you skip them then you're not drawing the same horse!
