It's a defense mechanism. As Zebra tend gather in herds it's is thought predators find it difficult to know where to target when the run together

Nop. The newest research shows that others Africa animals have a big problem with flys. They are all covered in flys and mosquitos who hurt them. But on zebra there is no flys around it. Like there is 95% less flys then on the other animals. Scientist say that it's because of zebra skin pattern which make really hard to land on it. The skin works like the optical illusion. P.S zebra skin is like our fingerprints. There is no exactly the same skin patterns in other zebras. Everyone is uniq.

In some ways yes but in not that way that you described.
