Giraffes on water

by William Blake


Isn't this a great photo?!
"Endangered Rothschild giraffes
 are relocated to Ruko Game
 Conservancy by barge on
 Wednesday, Feb. 9. This was
 the first-ever attempt to transport
 giraffes by water in Kenya.
Supported and executed by The
 Northern Rangelands Trust and
 Samatian Island Lodge - a luxury
 camp situated on a private
 island in Lake Baringo – the
 project took four years to plan
 as giraffes are some of the
 most difficult animals to move."
Eight
 giraffes in Kenya got a very rare
 ride to their new home — in a
 boat, the Associated Press reports.
