Matroska Giraffe

The sun beat down on the arid plains, casting long shadows as a majestic giraffe led her young across the parched earth. The vast expanse of blue sky stretched endlessly above, a stark contrast to the dusty ground beneath their hooves. With each deliberate step, the mother giraffe exuded a quiet strength, her gaze fixed on the distant horizon, where the promise of acacia leaves and a watering hole shimmered like a mirage. The young ones followed closely, their smaller strides mirroring her own, learning the ancient rhythms of survival in this unforgiving land.

I have loved giraffes for many years. As an 81 year old great grandma, my current goal is to connect my 2 1/2 year old great granddaughter to my love for these amazing beasts. I send her small giraffe gifts when I can and she’s learning to call me GiGi – easier to say than great grandma and a way to honor my deceased sister Georgia, whom I nicknamed GiGi when I was about 14 months old and I couldn’t pronounce Georgia. It became her lifelong nickname. And GiGi references ‘giraffe’ in my mind. I’m delighted to be able to make a donation and look forward to receiving my giraffe print. Thank you for all you do to for these marvelous animals!

Supporting GCF saves giraffe.

Can you imagine a world without giraffe?

Over the past 35 years, giraffe numbers have decreased by nearly 30%. In regions once considered prime habitats, their numbers have dropped by up to 95%, and giraffe have lost nearly 90% of their historical range over the last three centuries.

The plight of giraffe, one of conservation’s best-kept secrets, is finally coming to light. Despite a significant decline in their population over recent decades, giraffe have garnered minimal attention and support for their conservation. Research conducted by conservationists has led to critical discoveries for the preservation of giraffe in the wild, most notably the identification of four distinct giraffe species. Among these, two species have such critically low populations that they are among the most endangered large mammals on the planet.

In the BBC documentary “Giraffe: Africa’s Gentle Giants”—featuring GCF’s important work in Africa—Sir David Attenborough referred to this decline as a “Silent Extinction.” These alarming numbers serve as a reminder that we need to protect giraffe now before it is too late.

GCF is the only NGO in the world that concentrates solely on the conservation and management of giraffe in the wild throughout Africa. We are dedicated to securing a future for all giraffe populations in the wild. Our conservation approach is based on solid science and our Translocation Programs are just one example that proves our success by actively bringing giraffe back into areas where they originally reigned.

Donating to GCF saves giraffe and puts you at the center of our work.

You are the backbone of our conservation actions and partnerships throughout Africa. Your support makes a difference.
