Info: Live streaming giraffe webcam at the Savannah Exhibit at Budapest Zoo in Hungary.
The webcam shows Rothschilds Giraffes also called Baringo Giraffes. Rothschilds giraffes have no markings on their lower legs and they are also taller than other giraffe species.

More info: The Rothschild’s giraffe used to be abundant across Kenya, Uganda and Sudan but is now only found in small populations in western Kenya and northern Uganda. They live in savannas, grasslands, and open woodlands where they are present in small herds, with males and females only mixing for breeding.

A Rothschild Giraffe has 5 ‘horns’ on its head while the other giraffe subspecies have just the two top ossicones.
