Maasai (or Masai) Giraffes, Giraffa camelopardalis tippelskirchi. Males Necking. Male giraffes often engage in necking, which can be to prove dominance or it can be sexual.

In real battles a giraffe can land a powerful blow with his head occasionally knocking a male opponent down. Canon 500D, zoom lens. (Featured in Love These Creatures, & Other Groups.)
