Here is a picture of some Giraffe I saw on my August 2002 Tanzania safari.

Very nice! Isn't it amazing how well they blend into the landscape? I took one in 2001 and should be getting my rug soon.

Very nice. Giraffe is one animal I can't see myself hunting. Yet. But you never know, they do have interesting markings.

SBT Are these are the Maasai giraffe species from Tanzania?

(Just saw Ann's post "very nice", great minds think alike!)

I would hunt a giraffe for the pupose of making one of the most beautiful full room rugs you can get from an animal.

I reckon the seats in my 4wd could do with some giraffe skin covers.

SafariHunt,

Thanks, and how'd you do that?

NitroX, yes, they are from Masailand. All those in the photo are female, males are considerably darker.

I could think about having a full mounted Giraff if my house had a room with enough headspace (maybe I need to ask my wife also)

This one is from my taxidermist in RSA
