The adult male giraffes were documented in Murchison Falls National Park, Uganda, and on a private farm in central Namibia. They were spotted during photographic surveys routinely conducted by GCF to determine numbers, population dynamics and distribution of giraffes throughout Africa. The dwarf giraffes had shorter legs compared to others of a similar age, and researchers from the Giraffe Conservation Foundation (GCF) have recently published a paper about their findings.

Scientists surprised to discover two dwarf giraffes in Namibia, Uganda Reuters Monday, January 11th 2021, 1:14 pm - In both cases, the giraffes had the standard long necks but short, stumpy legs. Being tall is the giraffe s competitive advantage, giving it the pick of leaves from the tallest trees, so scientists were stunned to find two giraffe dwarves on different sides of Africa. It s fascinating what our researchers out in the field found, Julian Fennessy, co-founder of the Giraffe Conservation Foundation, told Reuters in a videocall on Friday. We were very surprised. Most giraffes grow to 15 - 20 feet (4.5 - 6 metres), but in 2018, scientists working with the foundation discovered an 8 1/2-foot (2.6 metre) giraffe in Namibia. Three years earlier, they had also found a 9-foot 3-inch (2.8 metre) giraffe in a Ugandan wildlife park.
