Description: Look! Up in the sky! Is it skyscraper with big umbrella thing? Is it a titanosaur sauropod(such as Camarasaurus, Brachiosaurus, Aegyptosaurus, and Paralatitan)? No! It is the world's tallest land mammal, the giraffe! Thanks to its long neck, and long legs, and it is recognized as one of the most famous animals in the world. Giraffes love to eat leaves from trees, within their 1-foot long black tongues to grab leaves from trees. Even a lot more taller than a Bush Loxodont(Loxodonta africana), giraffes are sociable in herds, consisted of adult females, sub-adult males, and their offsprings. Older adult males are highly solitary, though they can fight other adult males for their mates. Their weapons are their long necks, their ossicornes, and their kick, which we see that male giraffes used their necks to fight each other for their mates, and also we see a giraffe kicked the lion with its back legs. Did we forgot to mention, about their spots. There are 4 species of Giraffa, was the Northern Giraffe(Giraffa camelopardalis), Reticulated Giraffe(Giraffa reticulata), Southern Giraffe(Giraffa giraffa), and the Masai Giraffe(Giraffa tippelskirchi). Some giraffes had no natural predators, but young and/or vulnerable adult giraffes are prey for lions, leopards, hyenas, wild dogs, and crocodiles. Did you know, that a giraffe was closely related to the endangered Okapi, and the American Pronghorn?
