Meet The White And Black Giraffes, The Worlds Rarest Animals (9 Pics)

One thing we can all agree on, giraffes are awesome! They are a symbol of Africa and can be found all over the continent. These creatures are beautiful dressed in their normal skin, but here I present you the black melanistic giraffe and the white leucistic giraffe.

Staff at the Wild Nature Institute were happy to see Omo still thriving during a recent foray to the national park, located in the northeastern part of the country. "We were lucky enough to resight her again this January, almost exactly one year later. We are thrilled that she is still alive and well," the organization wrote on its blog. It's also soliciting votes for a new name, or to keep Omo as her moniker. Omo isn't albino; she has a genetic condition called leucism, says Derek Lee, founder of the institute. Her skin cells don't produce pigmentation, but soft tissues, such as her dark eyes, do.
