"I Can See Kenya From Here" (Endangered #5)
Some explanation and clarification of the title is needed for this post. The title is a spoof on a campaign speech line by one of our lesser known political personalities in the USA. The feud between the people of Kenya and Tanzania where this photo was taken is often alluded to when one travels through East Africa.
Lastly, the giraffe is not yet on the endangered list, but at the rate of its dwindling population, it won't be long. I took some liberties with the designation of "endangered." With that being said, losing 40% of the giraffe population in 15 years is very alarming so why wait until they are almost completely gone. And the reasons for the dwindling #s are habitat loss, hunting and poaching. In other words, humans.
The whole point of this series on my stream is to say that there are predictions that the African animals that we all LOVE to see will be gone by the mid part of this century.
