World's Only White Giraffe Fitted With GPS To Deter Poachers

The world’s only known white giraffe has been fitted with a GPS tracking device to keep poachers at bay in North-East Kenya. Rangers can now monitor the lone male giraffe’s movements around the clock to keep him away from poachers.

They were a female and her seven-month-old calf with similar white skin whose bodies were found in a conservation area in Kenya's north-east Garissa Country – where the male Giraffe is currently living. The non-profit organisation said the tracking device would give hourly updates on the giraffe's whereabouts, allowing rangers to "keep the unique animal safe from poachers".
