Two Southern Cape Giraffes Resting
Two Cape Giraffe at rest in the Central Kalahari Game Reserve in Northwest Botswana near the Kalahari Plains Camp where I stayed several nights during my trip to the country. When giraffes sit down, they do it very slowly and carefully with a lot of thought because in that position, they are more vulnerable to possible predators than standing up.
These giraffes are just one of nine different subspecies of giraffes determined by markings and other physical characteristics located in various regions of Africa.
