Quagga
  An extinct member of the equine family. Like the Zebra, the species was peculiar to South Africa, but it bore more resemblance to a horse than does the former, being easier to break and having a good mouth. The striped markings were distinct on the head and neck, but faded away behind the withers, and disappeared altogether about the middle of the back. It is believed that the last known to the species was a stallion owned by Lord Morton in 1870.
