"Giraffes and zebras are often found grazing together in the savannah grasslands in Africa. There is a particular reason for this. Giraffes have the advantage of spotting advancing predators from far away due to their long necks; on the other hand, zebras have incredible night vision. The pair are a formiddable force. Our photography volunteers in the Greater Kruger Area (South Africa) captured this relationship quite well on one of their daily game drives, during the infamous Golden Hour".
