A renowned conservationist Philip J. Briggs has spoken out after capturing one month ago a giraffe with a strange-looking neck in Amboseli.
The 36-year-old conservationist told the Daily Mail that the animal looked perfectly healthy when he took a picture of it.
He said that its neck could have been misshaped by injury or illness.
Mr Briggs hailed the giraffe's survival abilities and resilience as it had not allowed its neck problem to hinder it from going about its daily activities..
"My first reaction to seeing this giraffe was that he is a true survivor, since his remarkable good health suggested that his neck problem was not holding him back whatsoever, " he said according to the Daily Mail.
"But to me this giraffe represented more than just being a survivor, he stood strong airing a boldness and a statement of 'you can bend me, but you cannot break me'. 'Nature can be cruel and some inspirational animals really defy logic, " he added.
The conservationist admitted to being shocked by the giraffe's neck, wondering how it was able to lead its life in its conditions.
"To see a giraffe with such a crooked neck and yet be so healthy really shocked me.'Just imagine what it's like for him to drink water? Does he have to bend, a vulnerable action, even further down to reach water, " Briggs said.
