stripes

A question.... Are zebra's white with black stripes or black with white stripes??

In the uterus the foal is completely black at first and later the white stripes develop. So officially a zebra is black with white stripes. But in an adult zebra, the ground colour of the skin is white, also under the black stripes; this is seen when you shave the fur. So both answers are correct.
You see, grey is often the colour what answers complicated questions the best!
