  1. The IUCN currently recognizes only one species of giraffe with nine subspecies. Giraffa camelopardalis rothschildi is named after the Tring Museum's founder, Walter Rothschild and is also known as the Baringo giraffe, after the Lake Baringo area of Kenya, or as the Ugandan giraffe. Lionel Walter Rothschild, 2nd Baron Rothschild, Baron de Rothschild, (8 February 1868 – 27 August 1937) was a British banker, politician, zoologist and soldier, who was a member of the Rothschild family. As a Zionist leader, he was presented with the Balfour Declaration, which pledged British support for a Jewish national home in Palestine. Rothschild was the president of the Board of Deputies of British Jews from 1925 to 1926 Yep, THAT Rothschild.
