Gorgeous, majestic white giraffes spotted, captured on video for first time ever

A pair of rare white giraffes were spotted in Kenya and captured on film for the first time ever.

The giraffes were filmed walking around the Ishaqbini Hirola Conservacy in Kenya's Garissa county. Several times during the video, the mother giraffe appears to recognize she is being filmed and looks directly at the camera.
