Introductiion:
This guide has been developed to provide essential background information about Africa’s giraffe. It highlights the management challenges faced by all stakeholders across the continent, from local communities to governments and their agencies, the non-governmental conservation community and the private sector,if this quintessential African species is to have a future in the wild. Written by the Giraffe Conservation Foundation (GCF) and produced with the invaluable support of Black Eagle Media, the publisher of Africa Geographic magazine, it comes at a time when giraffe numbers have fallen by more than 40 per cent in the past decade and a half and when, although the species’ formal conservation status is Least Concern, two subspecies have recently been classified as Endangered on the IUCN’s Red List. As such, they are of high conservation priority.
