The giraffes of the Maasai Mara are special in both their appearance and their adaptation to the environment. They are characterized by irregular, star-shaped patches with light brown lines in between, which differ from the more regular patterns seen in other giraffe species. Additionally, the giraffes found in the Maasai Mara have adapted to the area's unique ecological conditions, thriving in both the open grasslands and the scattered woodlands. Watch the #GreatMigration2024 from the Maasai Mara from August 16-18 to see these towers of the Maasai Mara during CGTN's live coverage of The Great Migration, 0800 GMT to 1200GMT, on our online platforms.
