Poachers have killed two super-rare white giraffes in Kenya, a conservationist group has said.
Rangers from the Ishaqbini Hirola Community Conservancy said they discovered the carcasses of a female white giraffe and her calf in a village in Kenya's Garissa County.
The conservationists said just one white giraffe remains and is thought to be the only one left in the world.
The poachers have not been identified and their motive for killing the pair is not yet known.

What beautiful animals. I wouldn't know how, but remaining one should be protected.
