Reticulated Giraffe

Vulnerable Savannah Best: Year-round
Did You Know?

The reticulated giraffe has the most striking coat of any giraffe subspecies — large, sharply defined polygonal patches separated by crisp white lines, like a stained-glass window.

The Full Story

Found only in northern Kenya, the reticulated giraffe is one of the Samburu Special Five. Numbers have rebounded strongly thanks to community conservancy protection around Samburu and Laikipia.
Conservation Status: Vulnerable

Your visit to Kenya directly supports the conservancies and rangers that protect these animals. Every tour booking contributes to sustainable wildlife conservation in East Africa.
