Giraffe

Giraffa camelopardalis

Habitat:

dry forest / savannah, central Africa (Zambia)

Notes:

I had always wondered if and how the camouflage pattern of a giraffe works...until I almost stumbled into this fellow without seeing him!! Pretty incredible to realize that a large animal can hide so well in it's natural habitat if it wants to...
