Hi. Can someone help me out with odd zebra behavior?

Hi everybody. I hope somebody can help me out with this.

A couple of the female zebras have been making a crying/whining sound, while sitting sort of leaning forward and vibrating her tail.

The male/female pair is housed in a separate cage. This female is not doing it.

The ones that are doing it are in separate cages.

I was thinking that maybe it has something to do with mating but the male isn't housed with them. They can however hear him.

So I'm a bit confused by this and I appreciate any info.

Thanks,
Arlene

I think you have the answer.

Thanks so much. Well, not much I can do then. The little devil just a trouble maker.
