Philadelphia Zoo Exhibit:
The zebras share an exhibit with the white rhinos, they have a fairly large turn out space, big trees for shade and a nice watering hole as well.
Proposal: They should make sure the grass is not dense or else the zebra will avoid it. They should have enough water for both the rhinos and the zebras because zebras rely on it.
Possible Enrichment: the best solution is to completely redo the dry grass and replace it with lush green grass.
