The rare white giraffe named Omo has been spotted again in Tarangire national park, after months had passed since the first sighting, it was easy to say it was dead, you know how calves are prone to a lot of dangers including predators and poachers, but luckily this creature is still surviving out there, maybe her suffering from leucism is just enough huh? Leucism is a condition where her skin cells cannot produce pigmentation which leaves the skin of this giraffe white.
The giraffe was named after a local soap detergent to glorify her color of skin.
Lets hope Omo lives even a longer life, may she be protected from all the dangers.
