Those are quite rare. Funny you should call them “Rothschild”. I’d call them reticulated… On the brink of extinction too…
How are you faring in lockdown? The Uk is taking quite a hit…
Stay safe.
Hello, Brian. We are faring well so far, thanks, though it looks as if lockdown is locked in! For some reason antibody testing isn’t happening; if it were we might start seeing the wood for the trees and find out how many of us have already been infected. But there are signs of serious scientific dissent today; saying our politicians need lessons in understanding modelling, and that their ongoing reliance on the Imperial modelling has been a big mistake! Hope all is well with you. As for reticulated, I believe they have a more geometric patterning than the Rothschild’s. I’m not sure if I have a photo. Will go and look. Take care!
they are the most extraordinary creates. Is anything taller than them?
I mean creatures!
Maybe a dinosaur π¦
lol!
Beautiful and so graceful.
Wow, beautiful, Tish! An animal I would love to meet!
They are indeed amazing animals, Terri. Even when you do meet them, it’s often hard to believe π
I kind of wish I could look out my back door and see one of these.
Now you’ve made me wish that too. What a sight it would be on Wenlock Edge.
beautiful animals! they exude elegance, i think π π
They are elegant, Lola.
And surely it would be rude, too! π π
Absolutely it would π
It’s easy to love a giraffe. They are so special π
Nothing quite like them π And hats off to the Lone Ranger look π π
hehehe! My other persona π
Giraffes are so stately. π
‘Stately’ that is just the word, Syliva.

All well here, Asante sana. Missing the grandkids. But hopefully we will see them again in a while. Look forward to the pic… Kwaheri sassa.
I’ve pinged you on my latest post as I’ve found a reticulated giraffe pic.
Thnak you! Thank you! I will actually pull the G. volume of my 24 tome Animal encyclopedia to re-read all about giraffes… π
Great images.
Thanks, Pete.
What glorious beasties. π
Glorious – yes. Elephants know a thing or two too.
