This is a saying which means that even trying to hide something things will remain as they were before. The allusion is to the stripes of a zebra. Even if you paint them to look like a horse, the zebra will always be a zebra. A person is always what s/he is no matter what happens. Perhaps the most similar saying in Spanish is: "Aunque la mona se vista de seda, mona se queda".
