Giraffe crossing right in front of our paused rail car in Zimbabwe. P4084658_ps0_crop
This photo was taken through the windshield of the "Elephant Express", a fun part of the journey from Victoria Falls to Imvelo Safari Lodges in Hwange national park. There are 4 species and 5 subspecies of giraffe, each with its own distinctive spot pattern. Giraffe populations are in more trouble than people realize; they have plummeted by 40% in the last 3 decades due to habitat loss, conflict, and poaching.
