Did you know it is still legal for British Hunters to kill giraffes for fun and bring back their body parts?
Giraffes are currently facing a “silent extinction,” with their numbers plummeting by nearly 40% over the past three decades. The primary threats to giraffes include habitat loss, poaching, human-wildlife conflict, and environmental changes.Â
World Giraffe Day is dedicated to raising awareness about the plight of giraffes in the wild and promoting efforts to protect these gentle giants.
But it is also a call to action.Â
Whether through donations, spreading awareness, or participating in local events, every action counts. Together, we can make a difference and ensure that giraffes continue to roam the African savannas.
