Thanks so much for posting this link, Cindy! I was planning on posting soon for some help with understanding the genetics of zebras. I'm somewhat familiar with genetics (I was a bio major in college), but I think some of the terms I've seen used are breeders' terms, not science terms (same idea, different words, etc). So this article (and the one before and after it on the same site) were EXTREMELY helpful. Thanks again!
