WIND YOUR NECK IN...... These two giraffes looked like they were having a dance as they battled it out in a vicious mating contest. The two males were pictured fighting for the approval of a nearby female next to a water hole in Etosha National Park, Namibia. As their necks intertwined they appeared to be dancing across the African plains, but that was far from the case. Amateur photographer Jenny Stevens warned that, while the giraffes may appear to be friendly with each other, this is actually an example of a vicious fight between rivals - which can sometimes be to the death.
