Plot summary
Khumba is a zebra foal born with stripes on only half his body, into an all-striped herd in the Great Karoo. His mother is Lungisa; his father, Seko, leads the herd. When drought comes, the herd blames Khumba for the lack of rain, and only Tombi, his closest friend, stays with him. A mantis draws a map of lines Khumba reads as water or stripes. Outside, the waterholes belong to Phango, a half-blind leopard. Khumba leaves to find water and his missing stripes. Mama V, a wildebeest, saves him from Skalk, a wild dog.
