Zebra crossing was meant for animals too

I don't know exactly who started Zebra crossing in the past. However, I used to heard that before it got implemented to use for human being, it was used for animals to cross the roads where people have to drive carefully as the area has densely populated with animals in forest around. As road going through forest marked with black and white strips like the famous animal, Zebra has, so called 'Zebra Crossing'.

This past got revised when I witnessed kind human being gesture to help animal to cross the road at busy streets nearby my residence. 

It was 9pm, I had dinner and was stuck into the window before going to sleep. A traffic signal was off which I can see clearly as people were showing their skills to make their way by stopping each other. However I noticed a stray dog was trying to cross 
the road from other side but failing to do so because of no stoppage to vehicles at that moment. A dog seems like used to with the routine to cross the road and 
was trying every moment when he found road little empty between two vehicles with no success since I was watching.

Sometime later, I found a dad-daugher duo with their two-wheeler trying to take U-turn at the signal. A girl sitting behind noticed a dog while her dad trying his skills to take U-turn. She whispered something at her father's ear resulting her father stopped their two-wheeler after taking the turn. A girl stepped down and ran toward road divider and stretched her hand to guide the dog so that she can give little confidence to a dog to cross the road. A dog noticed the girl and after few attempts, dog got reached at the road divider.

Afterward, a girl took that dog to another side of the road where I found a dog was so happy showing his gratitude by moving his tail contineously untill that girl disappeared with their bike. I was amazed by a small girl's gesture to help dog to cross the road. A signal has zebra crossing, but I know the difficulty to cross the road when signal is off. And here it's animal, who cares except sensitive human being like a little girl in this context.

Keep up good work! Thanks for reading!!!
