| Busch Gardens The Dark Continent 1980 Giraffe I can't tell which species. Reticulated has clearly outlined sharply defined markings and Masai has more heavily indented leaf shaped markings than this, I believe, I'm quite sure it's not Rothschild's- they're far too rare to be at a theme park and are much paler than this. It could be a hybrid Reticulated/ Masai, zoos didn't always realize there was more than one type of giraffe.) |
| Denver Zoo 1986 Giraffe This looks like a Reticulated giraffe. |
| London Zoo 1983 Reticulated giraffes. Not sure which species of zebra is in the corner. Possibly a Grevy's. |
| London Zoo 1983 Okapi None of my photos do true justice to the beautiful velvety sheen of the okapi's coat. The okapi is related to the giraffe. |
| London Zoo 1983 Okapi The tongue really is a bluish white. |

| Busch Gardens The Dark Continent 1980 Camel (can't recall which species it was) |
| London Zoo 1974 Camel (looks like two humps which makes it a Bactrian camel. The Dromedary is more usually domesticated for riding, though.) |
| Miami Metrozoo 1983 Camel Definitely dromedary. |
