Giraffes in danger of extinction
#1
We know that many species are in danger, but giraffes are in a particularly vulnerable position. They are being killed for bushmeat.  The poachers who kill Elephants and Rhinos are killing the giraffes for food while they hunt the Elephants and Rhinos.

Their numbers are dropping quickly and we could easily lose some of the giraffe subspecies. Giraffes could be lost to some areas of Africa. If they are not better protected we may be the last generation to see live giraffes roaming the African savannah.
It would be sad to loss such beautiful creatures. They are so unique and so magnificent. I hope something is done to protect them better.
