Chitabe Camp - Okavango Delta, Botswana |
Female Giraffe.
The female has hair on the tops of her horns. Interesting thinG about the trees the giraffes feast on. If the giraffe spends too much time on one tree, the tree begins changing it's physiology to turn the leaves bitter, thus preventing the giraffe from devouring the tree. This change in physiology is transmitted to the surrounding trees. Wild!
