We have seen lots of really amazing wildlife here on #safari in the #KrugerNationalPark area, but I have yet to get used to seeing huge and amazing animals like impalas, kudus, nyalas, elephants and giraffes just walk around, you know, like IT'S NORMAL. It feels so special! There are four species of #giraffes, but only one kind live here in #SouthAfrica, the Savannah Giraffe. These guys don't have vocal chords, so they speak mostly with body language. You can tell which ones are males because they have flatter horns (they fight with other males), whereas females have knobbier horns and even hair on the tops of their heads. Though giraffes are huge, and are effective fighters as they can kick their legs both forward and back, they are still a common food source for the area's local apex predators (primarily lions), especially if they're found sleeping, as it's hard for them to get back up. #YouLearnSomethingKnewEveryday #Sunrise #SafariDrive14 #Timbavati #Kruger #SouthAfrica (at Timbavati Game Reserve)
