Giraffe in the Serengeti National Park

"Twiga", Tanzania's National Animal

Giraffe, my favorite animal to spot on safari, and the Serengeti has lots of these rather shy creatures, nibbling away at trees and sauntering with style.

No African safari is complete without seeing giraffe and despite their numbers decreasing overall in Africa, there are still plenty roaming the Serengeti National Park. You can find them throughout the park, particularly in the western and northern sections where there are more bushes and trees to graze on. Being the tallest animal in the world, certainly makes it easy to spot them.
