Another two animals that team up to compensate for their own weaknesses are the zebra and the ostrich. These two animals often travel together. This is no surprise they are a perfect match. While the giant, flightless ostrich has poor senses of both smell and hearing the zebra has acute senses of smell and hearing. On the other hand, the zebra has terrible eyesight, while the ostrich has excellent eyesight, enhanced by its seven-foot-long neck which enables the ostrich to see far into distance. In this way, each makes up for the other’s deficiencies. As a result, the animals are far safer together than they would be apart. Ostriches can see predators, such as lions, from far in the distance while zebras can smell or hear others as they approach.
