I'll tell you what you don't do with a Giraffe:
You don't eat it. It's the only game animal I've ever tasted that I would not enjoy again. It has a musk and is tougher than tough...just ridiculously tough. Keep in mind, I eat everything and anything but this one I cried "uncle".
Regarding hunting giraffes:
It's a very odd and annoying hunt compared to all the other beasts of Africa. A few reasons:
1.) It's vitals aren't all that big so you want to get fairly close for the shot because it needs to be dispatched swiftly. Usually, they will bump, bump, bump keeping you at distance.
2.) For every 100 shots you could take you may only have 1 shot you want to take. Just because you can kill a giraffe doesn't mean you can RETRIEVE a giraffe. You're evaluating not just the shot, but how far it will run after a perfect shot and where it will collapse. Can you get a truck there? You're considering a lot of strange factors in your mind as is the PH other than normal hunting considerations. It's a logistics operation of epic proportions.
3.) Then are you ready for the commitment for what you'll do with it once harvested? It can't go to waste. Do you have 6 hours to dedicate to processing and loading it in multiple trips back to camp and get it distributed to the local villages? When you harvest a giraffe, the hunting day is over. That meat must be brought to the villages and it takes about 4-5 trips with a cruiser to retrieve all of the meat. The hide alone is many hundreds of pounds and fills a cruiser in itself.
It's a curious game animal and it provides its own challenges, for certain. Also, leave no doubt that it is a game animal. It's closest living relatives include the Okapi and the North American Pronghorn Antelope.
