Most have heard of Zebra rugs, but many haven’t considered the numerous applications of a tanned Zebra hide.

Here are some FAQ and suggestions on production with Zebra hides:

What is the legal species of Zebra hide in the United Sates?
The legal species of Zebra for trade and ownership in the United States is the Bruchell variety, which has roughly 80 stripes from head to toe. A full sized hide is cut down the belly, with the striping down the center. A professionally tanned full hide has the head, body, thighs, and tail.

What does a finished Zebra hide feel like?
A finished hide is slightly stiff but very pliable and easy to cut and manipulate. The fur is groomed and shaved down for a smooth and relatively thin material to maximize appearance, touch, and last a lifetime.

Many Zebra hides are perfectly legal to import to the United States.  While there are endangered species of the Zebra, most types are very common game for hunters because of their abundance.  Herds of zebra are commonly found running wild through Africa and sometimes even found in human populated regions.  They are a regular food source for Crocodiles, Lions, and other creatures in the African wild.

That said, U.S. customs regulations can be tricky in the importing of species since their legalities must be ensured by Fish & Wildlife.  The best way to obtain a genuine Zebra rug is through a broker that deals especially with the importation of exotic leather and hides.
