Question

A dazzle of zebras is an appropriate collective noun for these beauties. But they were also trained to pull chariots in the colosseums of Ancient Rome under what alias?

Answer 1

The correct answer is hippotigris.
Zebras actually belong to the genus Equus, which is a group of mammals including horses, zebras, and donkeys, among other animals. The subgenus the zebra belongs to is known as Hippotigris, which refers to the pattern of black stripes over the white body of this particular animal.
