Absolutely beautiful pictures, especially the first close up frontal shot of the long necked one, drinking. Nice composition. Thanks for sharing them.

I have shot a couple of giraffe, with double rifles, and the wife has shot one. I have eaten giraffe and it is very good to eat.
This was in the SAVE where they have a surplus and they need to be thinned...

However, I do like giraffe. They are one of my most favorite animals to watch.

Elephants and Giraffes are 2 of the most unique animals on the Planet, IMHO.
