Zebra & Giraffe

Giraffes battle.. aimed for legs

Male giraffes fighting with their necks

That’s how the world’s tallest animal fight.. neck wrestling

A perfect symbiosis

A giraffe feeding on the whistling thorn (Acacia drepanolobium). This tree has many bulbous that are occupied by stinging ants, as body guards. The bulbous give shelter, nectar, sap for ants and in return, these ants attack animals that try to eat the leaves.

Camouflage

Amazing view of the yellow carpet on T17 road, Ngorongoro Conservation Area

Burchell zebras grazing together on the yellow field. The color of Burr marigolds is so beautiful.

Plains (Burchell’s) zebras with iconic stripe pattern, each stripes are as unique as fingerprints

Descending into the Ngorongoro crater. Observing zebras upclose and having our late lunch with African elephants

Burchell's zebra

Cute Zebra with lovely coat pattern, one of my favorite animals. Sad thing is that they are hunted for skins and meat.

Standing on the yellowish field with the distinctive black and white striped coat could definitely bring it into the limelight.
