An image made available by the Ishaqbini Hirola Community Conservancy on March 10, 2020 shows the rare white giraffe in Garissa county in North Eastern Kenya. Kenya's only female white giraffe and her calf have been killed by poachers, conservationists said on March 10, 2020, in a major blow for the rare animals found nowhere else in the world. The bodies of the two giraffes were found "in a skeletal state after being killed by armed poachers" in Garissa in eastern Kenya, the Ishaqbini Hirola Community Conservancy said in a statement. Their deaths leave just one remaining white giraffe alive-a lone male, borne by the same slaughtered female, the conservancy said. (Photo/Agencies)
