Today’s photo fact is about the Giraffe which is endemic to Africa. There are quite a few different subspecies and possibly species with obviously distinct patterns, but the exact number of these is hotly debated.
While many probably know of a Pride of Lions and a Herd of Elephants, there are some more obscure collective nouns describing groups of animals.
A Tower of Giraffe is one, others include: Murder of Crows, Blaze of Dragons, Shiver of Sharks, Kaleidoscope of Butterflies, Gang of Weasels and a Crash of Rhinos…
