Giraffes and elephants wander about in the snow after freak blizzards hit Africa!
SNEEUBERG, Western Cape, South Africa (PNN) - September 11, 2018 - Animals more used to the searing heat have been swanning around in the snow after freak blizzards hit the Savannah.
Giraffes, antelopes and elephants were all among the beasts braving the freeze after the white stuff hit South Africa over the weekend.
Pictures of the snow-covered creatures have swept across social media as viewers marvel at the bizarre scenes.
Kitty Viljoen captured elephants enjoying the snow in the Sneeuberg on the Western Cape of South Africa, where snow hit late last week.
Sneeuberg translates to Snow Mountain, and dustings are not unusual across parts of South Africa in the winter, but this cold snap comes particularly late in the season.
Viljoen also photographed giraffes in snow in the Karoo semi-desert region.
Antelope on the Glen Harry Game reserve in Graaff-Reinet, Eastern Cape, were also snapped surrounded by white covered vegetation.
Snowfall across parts of South Africa late last week forced the department of transport to close roads across the Eastern Cape due to icy conditions.
