giraffes in pairs

  • Ettina by Ettina

    Are giraffes social? I often seen 2 or 3 together, and they don't obviously look like mother and calf. Or is it just that I'm seeing almost-grown calves?

    Gregarious - seem to have no fixed herd structure, but resident within a limited range and often associate with neighbors. In western Serengeti we used to see big groups like 50 or so, but that is less common these days.
