Quagga zebras that pulled carriages and protected livestock against predators, are the focus of this book that combines history, biology, Bushmen stories, art, and literature. Hunted into extinction for their high-quality leather, their DNA showed rebreeding was feasible, and animals resembling quaggas now live in their old habitats.
