A small population of the White Desert Giraffes remains in a remote area in Niger. This isolated population shares its territory with local people. These last & rare Giraffes were very close to extinction due to human pressure & lost habitat.
Thanks to both an internationnal conservation project & local people efforts, now the giraffes are out of threat & are expanding again their range.
Story of a real success...
