NamibiaCam: Giraffe and feral horses 25 Dec 2021

[@ransfordrowe6409]

Regardless of how many times I see giraffes on TV,KZbin etc.Their size,beauty and grace still takes my breath a way.

[@draoi99]

I saw a giraffe live on the webcam last night. It's very special to see these magnificent animals make themselves vulnerable to take a drink.

[@bridget.8325]

Truly, the Namib gave and gave this morning. She kept on unwrapping her gifts to so many. 🎁Such gifts, are more than people will ever know. Now, thats what you call a Merry Christmas!🎁❤

[@edz]

I think this is the first time I’ve seen a giraffe bend over to drink. How hard does that look!

[@gheffz]

Giraffe, horses and a jackal! _(And grouses)_ *Merry Christmas, all* ... and regardless of how bad 2021 (and 2020) for most of us... let's be determined to make 2022 the best year so far!!!

[@anthonyrstrawbridge]

Yes

[@bryanguegan6937]

Hmmm 2022 starts with 1.5M Covid cases worldwide daily so that year might be the same as the past 2 years sadly...

[@JamesBond-si7xs]

Quite breathtaking….the giraffe is such an elegant animal

[@loislowe9962]

Giraffe is so pretty. He needs a raised water fountain to get his drink. They are so tall, beautiful animal.

[@missfriscowin3606]

Giraffes seem to be aliens to me. Merry Christmas 🎄 all 💝

[@erinkinsey8831]

Very wary

[@dolphinlover1691]

Isn't it us humans that are the aliens 👽 These wild critters🦒🐎🦆 seem to have more wisdom and grace than the whole human race combined... Loved watching them all 💞

[@neobossnet]

穏やかな砂漠の大物。 その威容は神の荘厳ささえ漂わせている。 馬が水を飲み干す間、キリンは彼らの為に、周囲を警戒してます。

[@Mamesssawa]

How beautiful. Giraffe.

[@susannevollmer2347]

I never expected horses there. Great to see them.

[@scottanddebranelson8419]

everybody nervous at the watering hole. thanks. Merry Christmas.

[@yuuloful]

3:57 cute💓

[@maxbr584]

Giraffes and horses seem to get on well, if not like each other

[@Nootelley]

Damn this is incredible

[@sausau66]

Haha

"As the jackal plans his next move, the giraffe chews a piece of gum...I got this.."....- ( secret video cam AI narration ) 11:30

[@staggerlee2011]

you're looking at the oldest dry land on earth; the first part of the earth to rise was this; primeval desert; atacama desert not far behind. you be welcome.....

[@swarupsaha4087]

These feral horses create more pressure for the wild ones

[@user-ninonino23]

fantastic…！

[@phoenixman8569]

Welcome to "JIRAFFIC PARK"

[@staggerlee2011]

are the feral horses from the germans, when the south africans chased them back to tanganyika in 1914? the concrete sandbags in katima are first world war. my great uncle was there, my grandfather's brother in law. so was i in '77.

[@jerilyncibulka6162]

Poor Giraffe so hard to get a drink!

[@RAZNOE100]

Спасибо за видео. Хотелось бы чтоб камера была качественнее, птиц и мелких животных плохо видно. Спасибо.

[@MMSN-qn8b88]

I missed the time when the giraffe was coming again. So sad...

[@WindTurbineSyndrome]

Drinking on bended knee keeping head in swivel for predators. Love this channel. Hope to get on safari some day.

[@WindTurbineSyndrome]

Feral horses in good condition. Mhave institute take a number for drinking turn? Bureaucracy at its finest. Bore watering hole helping wildlife so much safe drinking water during drought is critical

[@sharon94503]

I so miss seeing Thelma & Louise. After the cheetah came this summer, they haven't been seen.

[@TheSeafordian]

Yes they have,

[@Leon612]

Those horses need a nice home.

[@brentliosmithii3467]

They are home. Freeeee

[@niconico25253]

so tall

[@EmperorEnne]

Unrelated question-have Cape buffalo been sighted in that area?

[@barbarablattler1305]

Not that I know of. Namibia only has buffalo in the north-east,

[@kariyasai]

Interesting how long it takes, before a giraffe starts drinking. And how difficult it is for her

[@susannevollmer2347]

They are always careful and also very kind. I love them.

[@wfs4227]

Poor baby neck is too long. This is the life of tall people. I know. Been there.

[@enricotoesca3941]

🎄🎄🎄

[@fathertime7232]

Watched it live.

[@user-wx8rp4vd8k]

⛲🦒

[@staggerlee2011]

the hide must be terrible, animals so wary of it, clearly behaving like guests.

[@incritorbma161]

Por que não plantam arvores ?

[@santhoshraja3631]

Whether water won't dry in this hole??

[@NamibiaCam]

In response to reduced availability of natural water sources for wildlife, this artificial waterhole was build in 2006 after the farm was converted by Gondwana Collection Namibia into a nature reserve and game species which had once been indigenous to the area was reintroduced . The waterhole was reconstructed in June 2021 with the round "rock" in the middle to reduce evaporation and provide birds a perch. A solar-powered pump on a 100m (300ft) deep borehole draws water from the aquifer (groundwater) into a reservoir 150m to the north-east behind the camera. A pipe feeds the waterhole from the reservoir and the flow is regulated via a float valve and water refills automatically.

[@dntskdnttll]

Is there a reason for the fact that the letters G and LLE are white in the url gondwana-collection? Edit: And that the letters that are white change over the course of the video?

[@eep3]

i think it adjusts based on what the computer thinks will be most visible. if it’s light, letters are black; dark, letters are white. maybe that part of the screen is confusing for the computer? i think

[@ross_spirou_photography]

The letters change colour according to the colour of the sky

[@AndreyKULAkov777]

Whi not drink

[@nekomaru6166]
