A zebra discovered in the savannah of the Maasai Mara, a national reserve in southwestern Kenya, was said to have a rare genetic mutation called pseudomelanism that instead of stripes, it has a polka-dotted coat!
One advantage of this distinctive pattern is that it is uniquely beautiful. However, the disadvantage is that it can be more easily spotted by biting flies and predators since it stands out.
