It is something rarely seen: a pure white animal that usually comes in a spectrum of color.
But people in Kenya were lucky enough to see not one, but two, rare white giraffes.
It was a mother and her calf and they have a genetic condition that strips them of the normal shades of tan, The Telegraph reported.
The condition is called leucism, and differs from albinism.
When an animal is an albino, it is pure white.
When it has leucism, the patterns of the fur, like spots or stripes, are still visible, The Telegraph reported.
