One of the most fascinating animals of Africa are giraffs.

When you see them roaming around in the bush you'll see them stick out their neck and overlook the terrain. Then you see they are the tallest terrestrial animals today.

Eight different living sub species are known in Africa. The picture show the giraffs populating Botswana (Angolensis). We took the photographs during a game drive through Mashatu Private Game Reserve.

Seven other extinct species are known from fossil findings.

Exciting for us was to see them in groups. Seeing them drinking from water holes or reaching up the trees for the juicy green leaves.
