Zebra duiker — size comparison — facts and sources
The zebra duiker lives in West African forests, where dense undergrowth provides cover while travelling and resting. It is associated with mature forest. It slips among plants and easily disappears from an observer's view.
It feeds in forest litter, gathering fruit, seeds and plant parts. It uses food falling from tree crowns; fruiting-tree presence influences where it forages. Resources in its habitat change with season and the local fruiting rhythm.
Zebra duikers occur alone or in pairs. Scent helps mark occupied space and recognise other individuals. The female usually gives birth to one calf that initially remains hidden in vegetation. Forest continuity matters for access to food, retreats and safe travel routes.
