Also called the Kilimanjaro Giraffe, this giraffe is found in Tanzania and Kenya. Its blotches are (as you can see) very irregular and are leaf shaped. There are around 32,000 of this species of giraffe left in the wild, so while it has suffered huge falls in its population over the last few decades, it is in a far better position than 2 subspecies.
