¿Por qué es feminine?

Zebre is feminine in Italian (la zebra) because it derives from the Portuguese "zebra," which was borrowed into Italian along with other exotic animal names, and it follows the feminine gender pattern of Italian nouns ending in "-a." The word's ultimate origin is uncertain but possibly traces to Bantu languages, and Italian simply assigned it feminine gender following the productive rule that "-a" nouns are typically feminine.
