As I mentioned in yesterday’s post, there were tons of babies of all species running around Kenya at this time of year. These are reticulated giraffes that we came across at our first camp in the Lewa Wildlife Conservancy. Although we saw quite a few baby giraffes, we didn’t see much interaction like this. In fact, giraffes are notoriously bad mothers, often forgetting that they even have babies and wandering off while the little ones are left to catch up. When born, the babies can already be up to six feet tall.
