00:00For the first time, Audubon Zoo in New Orleans welcomed three Hartman's Mountain Zebras last week.
00:07This species is rarely seen in human care as there are just 80 of these zebras across 20 facilities
00:15accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums.
00:19Hartman's Mountain Zebra are found only in the Arab Mountains and plateaus of coastal Namibia,
00:25parts of the southern Angola and northern South Africa.
00:28Their pointed hooves help them climb rocky terrain.
00:32They also use their hooves to dig in riverbeds for water if they cannot find any at the surface.
00:38Hartman's Mountain Zebra are listed especially vulnerable to extinction due to habitat loss from livestock farming,
00:45climate-induced drought, and competition for water.
00:49The Audubon Zebra trio consists of a pair of two-year-old sisters Athena and Selina and six-year-old
00:55Mel J.B.
