Is a zebra a kind of horse or an animal of it's own?

Question:

Answer: Classification: Zebras are in the same family as horses, Equidae, having the same genus Equus, but are different species. Several different species exist including Grevy's Zebra [Equus (horse) grevyi], and one identified variously as Grant's zebra, plains zebra, or Burchell's zebra [Equus (horse) burchelli boehmi]. Unlike horses, zebras manes are erect, and the ears are large and donkey-like with thick fur inside. I assume you are asking they are different types of horses like Palominos and Appaloosas, and the answer is no.
