Giraffe

Africa’s Graceful Giants

Giraffes, Africa’s iconic giants, are known for their towering height, distinctive spots, and serene presence. With necks that can reach over 6 feet, they are the world’s tallest land animals.

Their spotted coats, stretching over their enormous frames, offer effective camouflage in their savanna habitat.

Giraffes are herbivores, using their prehensile tongues to strip leaves and buds from trees.

They exhibit a complex social structure and often gather in groups called “towers.” Males assert dominance through “necking” battles, swinging their heads like hammers.
