One region of the Toronto Zoo is dedicated to African animals. Some you may recognize because they have been popularized for their uniqueness. Have you heard of the common eland before?
Watch the giraffe in the video below, she moves like a tall slim fashion model on the runway, walking to the end, making a turn and posing for pictures.
Finishing up this post is an animal that you may not have seen before but it is as unique in its appearance as any of the others. It is the Red River Hog.
Wonderful photos as always, Doug. I don’t think I’ve seen a white lion or Red River Hog before. I’ve always wondered about the markings on zebras and giraffes- how they develop or how deep they go.
Hi Lily, that sounds like a research project for you.
Beautiful photos and videos, Doug. Thanks for sharing.

Great Images. I want to visit the zoo.
Do you have a zoo near you? Is there a particular animal that you want you see?
As an African living abroad, seeing these beautiful animals reminds me of home. The giraffe’s elegance and the Red River Hog’s uniqueness truly capture Africa’s spirit. Wonderful post, thank you Doug for sharing.
