Summary[edit]

Description
English: Necking giraffes in Ithala Game Reserve, northern KZN province, South Africa.
They slam their heads into each other with absolutely horrifying force. We sat watching this fight for over an hour. The one on the left lost, his timing was none too good, so he tended to miss, and then take one right in the throat. His tactic was to push the other one into a nearby thorn tree (pretty much destroying the tree in the process), and almost into my car. I had to move in a hurry. But after 20 or 30 thundering hits in the neck/chest, he gave up.
