Interesting info
Most everything about a giraffe is large. Its heart is two feet long. Its feet are 12 inches across. Its neck is six feet long, although it has just seven vertebrae—the same as a human! At birth, a baby giraffe is six feet tall and initially grows an inch a day.
Today on World Giraffe Day, we shine a spotlight on the world's tallest animal. Adult males can be more than 18 feet tall, which enables them to reach leaves from tall trees and look out for predators, such as lions. Their splotchy coat—a pattern unique to each individual—helps camouflage them.
