I’m surprised this is just now being officially discovered.
It could have been overlooked because Giraffe are not usually harvested for their tusks, fur or meat in great numbers. They are innocuous herbivores, eating only plants. So they aren’t hunting anything that moves around or consumes another living thing. It would be great to help them prosper, but at this point in world history, the Giraffe may by safer on a Wilderness maintained by Governmental organizations that support tourism.
They are particularly in danger from 12 year old girls.
