Zebras, Kenya

Photograph by Justin Bowen

I was lucky enough to see these two fighting zebras while crossing the Masai Mara in Kenya . We stopped our vehicle and watched as the two zebras bit, kicked, and otherwise pestered each other. The two crossed our path and then started kicking violently. I followed the pair and was able to capture this moment just before they split up and went their separate ways.
