blazing stripes...
If it can be blazoned-- it's heraldry:
azure, issuing from the sinister side of the shield a zebra's head couped at the shoulder, proper.
So there. Advance it on shield and banner without the let or hindrance of any manner of man or men, whatsoever.
If you are thinking of adding a mound to the base of the shield, I'd suggest that you have the zebra forcene (that is rearing up on it's hind legs) on it, as this will add better balance to the over-all design.

Thank you, MacMillan of Rathdown.
The Rearing zebra was what I had originally envisioned, as you have described, and I did attempt to make a ceramic tile depicting this a long time back. It had flaws in the prospective and proportions.
I'll see if I can dig up the picture.

I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
