Why do some say to cook chicken to 160Â°F and others to 170Â° or 180Â°? This goes to the very heart of the liberal/conservative debate â and, as you can imagine, its not pretty. Our government says that you should cook a whole chicken until the temperature measured in the thigh is 180Â°F (82Â°C). If you cook chicken pieces, the government says, the thigh, wings, and drumsticks should be 180Â°F, while the breast should reach 170Â°F (77Â°C).
The whole body is striped except for the belly. In the Cape mountain zebra, the ground colour is effectively white, but the ground colour in Hartmann's zebra is slightly buff. Adult mountain zebras have a head-and-body length of 2.1 to 2.6 m (6 ft 11 in to 8 ft 6 in) and a tail of 40 to 55 cm (16 to 22 in) long. Shoulder height ranges from 1.16 to 1.5 m (3 ft 10 in to 4 ft 11 in). They weigh from 204 to 372 kg (450 to 820 lb). Groves and Bell found that the Cape mountain zebra exhibits sexual dimorphism, females being larger than males, whereas in Hartmann's mountain zebra they are not.
Most zebras reach their full height of 3 1/2 to 5 feet at the shoulder at around age 2, but they fill out for two to three years to reach their maximum weights. It normally takes three to four years for a female to reach her maximum weight, not counting her weight when she's pregnant.
