I see in this product there is a zebra https://www.daz3d.com/safari-animals and here are poses for the zebra https://www.daz3d.com/alpha-male-combat-old-world but no zebra in the store and it should be a Daz Original.

a shame there no zebra for horsie 2
I think it is the one included in this: https://www.daz3d.com/millennium-horse
It looks like there was originally a stand-alone Daz zebra though and in the description of the Millenial horse it doesn't say there's a zebra texture, just morph... Anyway,I'm not at my computer now but I'll check the horse product to see if there's a zebra texture.
There was a stand-alone zebra, looks as if it has been pulled from the store though it is still included in https://www.daz3d.com/safari-animals (though I suspect that bundle will now be pulled).
I have that bundle. Can't remember when I got it. I'll have to check if it was still included. Why would they pull the bundle or the zebra since they are Daz Originals?
My account shows him as inactive. I purchased him back in 2009.
I'm on my iPad, not at my computer and didn't think to check my account. Yes I have him and there is still a download link
I wonder why they pulled him though. Definitely going to try him out, don't know why I haven't yet!
I followed the link to the bundle today and the zebra is no longer listed below as a seperate package, but the verbiage still mentions him as included: "A $170 dollar value which you can get for over 40% off! Includes African Elephant, Pronghorn Antelope, and Panther (plus maps), Rhino, and Zebra."
So I wonder just what a new purchaser would receive if they bought the bundle today?
You should, it's still associated with the bundle (has to be for those of us who purhcased it previously).
Even more pertinent, with a certain date coming up, is "Where is the Deflating Donkey"? And will we see it again?
dFlatable Donkey, this year I want a dFlatable Zebra
The Zebra is in my runtime and it shows a create date of February 17 2011 8:00 PM even though I'm sure I bought the Safari Bundle before that date. Maybe I bought it twice. I did loose a bit of content I purchased and forgot about 3D models for a while so maybe that's why. I might install now via DIM but I never cleanuped up after the old exe installers that used to be used for products either.
Looks like they just did. I also wonder why?
Because it had the Zebra in it and DAZ is secretly run by an Okapi who hates the Zebras who used to make fun of him in school. To be fair, though, Zebras are generally kind of jerks as they only see things in black and white and never in shades of grey.
I would think a dfatable Elephant would probably be next. Or, better yet, a kit to inflate your dflatable Donkey.
The saggy baggy elephant!
I think I know what happened to it...
It is really strange to me that there have been no other iterations of zebras here at DAZ, or at Hivewire for the HW Horse...I could use a zebra! Mostly for centaur-ish purposes, but yeah.
I can't tell you how many times someone has asked me those very same words...
there is a zebra for Centaur 3 male
I could use a good African elephant. I was hoping after AM did the Indian one an African one would come out, guess not.
I also did a rough one

Herp derp. Yup, and one for Centaur 3 female, too, both by RawArt. And I own them both, so yay!
Awesome! Thanks for that. Have you shared the textures also, or is that a shaping preset?
is just textures, click on attachments to open in new window and rightclick save as

Woot woot! Thank you, thank you!
I have to admit, when the Horse 2 came out, I was assuming that a Zebra morph/texture set would be one of the very first add-on products released. I mean, there's a zebra kit for a RAT in the store. But no, we got MyLittleNotQuiteTrademarkInfringingPonies, a hippo, multiple Unicorns, DemonHorses, UndeadHorses, Pegasi (I think that's the correct plural) and yet, no Zebras. As Hawkeye said, it doesn't make a lot of sense...
Safari animals is inactive, but Safari Starter Bundle is still in the store. https://www.daz3d.com/safari-starter-bundle
Store page doesn't include Zebra though. Or at least there's no thumbnail for it.
Main promo image, yes. But not listed among the components of the bundle.
