GIRAFFES DUCK FOR COVER

Making their way to Giraffe Manor in Nairobi, Kenya, they look surprisingly relaxed as they watch on as workers clear the way for them. 'There are ten Giraffes currently at the manor,' says Giraffe Manor representative, Julia Perowne. “The giraffes come for breakfast and then appear sporadically throughout the day and in the evening.''They eat the horse pellets that we leave out for them, but anything they can get their hands on they seem to enjoy.
