FYI, simple question like this you should use the "search" button. Most of the time you'll find the answer to your question(s).
Life expectancy for zebras will depend on how well the zebras are care for.

Heard of a guy in germany who had some wildcaught allready 12 years in his tank.
I heard that a life span of 30 to 45 years should be possible.
Greetings,
John

WOW!! that is a long time. Almost makes the hefty investment seem a bit more justified.
Cheers for the help

i wouldnt look at it as an investment cause you could be easily disappointed.
