I do a lot of driving and I haven't run across those guys yet. The images look to be well exposed with OK detail. Thye BG is not the greatest but I don't think the zebras would have entertained a request to move to a better spot. You could have used a tad more DOF on #2 and its a shame that there's the grass stalks in front of some of the subjects (again that's the problem with willdife). Other than those nits the images are OK.
What makes you unhappy with your results?

Zebras
I'm unclear where you go out for a drive and find Zebras. On a Tanzania/Kenya safari 20 years ago there were plenty of Zebras, but not like these.
I believe your fine pictures are of Grevy's Zebra. The giveaway is how their stripes stop, leaving a white belly color. Attached is a baby from Kenya with the same stripe pattern. The picture, taken in 1990, is meant to be illustrative of the Grevy's Zebra, despite it's deficiencies.

I could find tigers, cheetahs and many other African game within a few hours ride of my home.
EDIT. You are correct; these are grevy's zebras. Grants have much broader stripes and indeed extend to the underbelly.
