MAASAI MARA NATIONAL RESERVE, KENYA: Necking is used between giraffes to establish male dominance. ACTION packed images reveal the moment two eighteen-feet tall male giraffes swung their huge necks at one another as they fought over male dominance. The series of incredible pictures showed the flexible pair of 2,600-pound males as they dramatically dipped and swung their impressive six-foot-long necks at each other in an expert display of contortion. In one shot, a giraffe stood with his legs splayed out wide in a bid to keep his balance during the brawl. The spectacular images were taken at the Maasai Mara National Reserve, Kenya, by vet and photographer Sonia Varma (32) from Nairobi, Kenya. Sonia used her Nikon D750 camera with Nikorr 200-400 lens to capture the scenes from just a few feet away. Mediadrumimages/Sonia Varma
