Snorts. Brays. Whinnies.

Whether you say zeh-bra like a proper BBC narrator or zee-bra like you learned phonics from Saturday morning cartoons, one thing’s certain: zebras sound... weird. Not majestic-horse-on-a-hillside weird—more like a kazoo had a baby with a hiccup and gave it stage fright.

Technically, their main sound is called a bray—but don’t let that elegant name fool you. This is not the bray of a noble steed. It’s a confused mix of low growls and high-pitched squeals, like someone left a squeaky toy in the dryer too long. Some scientists liken it to a hiccup, which feels both accurate and oddly affectionate.

But zebras don’t stop there. Oh no. These monochrome drama queens also bark, snort, and whinny their way through the day. It’s not random either—each noise carries its own meaning: alarm, contentment, where-are-you, stop-touching-me, etc. It's basically their version of texting, if your texts came with slapstick sound effects and dust clouds.

So here it is—24 seconds of raw savannah symphony. No filters, no commentary. Just zebras being zebras: neurotic, noisy, and entirely delightful.

Press play. Try not to laugh. Or do laugh—zebras don’t care. They’ve been doing this since the Pleistocene and they’re not changing now.
