Heres a shot of London zoo giraffe enclosure which is a satellite image. Now there's no way that you could identify the blobs as giraffe, but they are the same size as the giraffes in LA.

I doubt that any animal could be positively identified from space at this resolution, and the chance of higher resolution shots of the African plains being published is not likely
