The Masai giraffe, also known as Kilimanjaro giraffe is a remarkable species that is not only the largest giraffe but also the highest terrestrial animal in the world.
Their body is massive and weighs approximately three tons. Males can weigh from 2,000 to 3,000 pounds while females can weigh from 1,300 to 2,000 pounds.
The spots on this particular species of giraffe are jagged compared to the others.
You can possibly differentiate the Masai giraffe from the other species mainly by the design of its fur “stamped” with irregular patches, which are darker in the dominant males, but generally, they are of brown with several shades of such color.
