In Kenya, in the North-East of the country in one of the reserves to local Rangers managed to capture an amazing phenomenon. Rare white giraffes strolled down the territory among their relatives, with interest looking at people.

Animals received this color due to a genetic mutation – laziska. It is noted that in this case the animals have only partial pigmentation of the skin – that's what leucism differs from albinism.

White giraffes for the first time caught the man in the winter of last year. They managed to capture in Tanzania. Since then they have caught the eye of a person only in Kenya in 2017.
