Reticulated Giraffe Kinda
In the last decade, giraffe populations have declined by 40 percent, and there are now fewer than 80,000 individuals in Africa, with fewer than 5,000 of them being reticulated giraffe (the species at Brookfield Zoo) left in East Africa. Additionally, of the nine subspecies of giraffes in Africa, two—the West African giraffe and the Rothschild’s giraffe—are classified as endangered, with less than 250 and 1,500 individuals, respectively, remaining in the wild.
