21 September 2022: Monkey

We once again spotted Monkey hanging out with a large herd of 18 giraffe, not too far from where she was previously spotted. Given that she was in such a large herd, she could again evade us easily… luckily she stood still just long enough for us to get a picture! Lots of youngsters in the herd with 12 sub-adults and juveniles. One of the most consistent giraffe in our survey population, again seen with both Rainy and Victoria. Did you know that giraffe don’t tend to stay in ‘set’ herds, instead they’re herd structure is more loose or fluid, with individual animals coming and going between different groups.
