Burchells Zebra habitat is mostly open woodland and grass savannahs. They are solidly built, and a higher heart/lung shot is recommended, as the heart is located somewhat further back.

Males and females are not that easy to distinguish between, but the males have a broader neck and muzzle, and often the dominant male will be the last in the herd when fleeing.

Burchells Zebra tend to form large herds, zebra are very gregarious and even sometimes hang around with other antelope.

Because they are so sociable, this presents its own challenge in hunting them as they tend to have many lookouts within the herd, that will warn the others of danger with a characteristic bark.

So one needs to be very careful when stalking them.
