Black or White Stripes?

The zebra is an interesting animal because of it unique pattern of stripes.  To my own understanding, there has always been a debate about whether the creature has black or white stripes, but I believe I have the truth.  The real truth is that no absoultely CARES!!!!!!! Want to know why no one cares?  Because everyhting likes pandas more than zebras.  Personally, I believe that zebras have orange skin that is covered up by the white and black stripes,  but then again no cares....
