The giraffe (Giraffa camelopardalis) is a long-necked, herbivorous mammal native to Africa. They are known for their distinctive and unique appearance, with long legs, a spotted coat, and a long neck that can reach up to six feet in length.
Giraffes are the tallest mammals in the world, with adult males reaching heights of up to 18 feet. Their long necks are made up of only seven vertebrae, which are elongated to allow them to reach leaves on tall trees that other animals cannot reach.
Giraffes are social animals and live in groups called towers or herds. They communicate with each other through a variety of vocalizations, including moans, hisses, and snorts.
