Did you just watch that video and turn your brain off? Did you even read my post? Reasonably, you can stalk zebras and grab the babies. Even that video doesn't claim zebras are impossible to domesticate. It implies they haven't been domesticated because it's more trouble than it's worth, which I disagree with because it is obviously worth it. They failed to do so because they had an idiotic culture.
Europeans have tamed zebras. A tamed zebra would have absolutely been an asset to Africans. Domestication is a matter of breeding them as well. What's more likely? That breeding was somehow impossible for them to do, that zebras are some magic species that don't follow normal genetic patterns because God made them special, or the Europeans just said fuck it and went back to the horses they already domesticated?
Why are you coping so hard?
In 100 years, white man will have domesticated Zebras.

Even if they didn't have the foresight for what these animals could be used for, please tell me how a steady meat supply doesn't seem like a very obvious benefit. Over time they could've built up their heard. Then, if they ever got around to inventing a fucking wheel lol, they would've figured they could make a zebra pull the cart instead of their wives. Eventually they would've had large, domesticated horse variants.
I just want to sperg for a second over my vast appreciation for the never-ending ingenuity of man. It is truly, fucking insane.
