Two of The Last Remaining White Giraffes on Earth Killed
Two of The Last Remaining White Giraffes on Earth Killed
Two extremely rare white giraffes in Kenya have been killed by Poachers

A female White Giraffe and its Calf were killed by Poachers in Kenya. Both of the White giraffes went missing months ago from the Ishaqbini Hirola Community Conservancy. Their skeletal remains were found. It is speculated that the giraffes were butchered by armed poachers. The poachers are still unidentified and the wildlife rangers are on the lookout for the killers. The motive of the poachers still seems to be unclear. 

The white appearance of these Giraffes is believed to be due leucism. Leucism appears in many animals but is extremely rare in Giraffes. 

It is believed that there is just one more of these giraffes left in the world. Let’s hope that this species doesn’t go extinct.
