Giraffe

in hive-183959 •  4 months ago 

Giraffes are fascinating creatures! They are the tallest land animals, with males reaching up to 5.5 meters (18 feet) in height1. Their long necks, which can extend up to two meters, allow them to browse foliage that other herbivores can’t reach2. Giraffes have a distinctive coat pattern of irregular brown patches on a light background, which helps them blend into their surroundings1.

They primarily inhabit savannahs and woodlands in Africa, where they feed on leaves, fruits, and flowers of woody plants, especially acacia species3. Giraffes live in herds and have a unique social structure, with males establishing hierarchies through “necking” battles3.
