The whole point of creating war zebras was to get rid of horses and eliminate that source of friction between the Pavisites and nomads. However, as you correctly say, the war zebras had a slow reproductive rate. Therefore to get more animals for everyday use, the war zebra stallions were mated with normal zebra mares to create a smaller and sterile but plentiful hybrid, the cavalry zebra. Having more zebra blood in them, the cavalry zebras were better adapted to the plains, but were still bigger and stronger than the normal zebras though not as large and strong as a war zebra or horse.
