Well, I will start to tell you about a giraffe. Giraffe is native to Africa,
mainly found southern of the Sahara desert. Giraffes have disappeared
from most of western Africa, except a residual population in Niger. Giraffes
are found in savannas, grasslands, or open woodlands. Because they only
occasionally drink, giraffes can be found away from a water source. Male
giraffes can venture into denser wooded areas in search of more foliage.
Giraffes have several characteristics such as long legs, long neck,
long tongue and distinctive spotted pattern, many people first believed
the giraffe was a cross between a leopard and a camel, which is reflected
in its scientific name, Giraffa camelopardalis. Their extreme height allows
them to eat leaves and shoots located much higher than other animals
can reach. In particular, they seek out acacia trees. Their long tongues are
helpful in eating because they help pull leaves from the trees.
Spending most of the day eating, a full-grown giraffe consumes over
45 kg (100 lb.) of leaves and twigs a day. The male giraffe is both taller
and heavier than the female. Giraffes sleep less than two hours a day. In
general, they sleep with their feet tucked under them and their head
resting on their hindquarters.
In many zoos and wildlife parks, giraffes serve as an attraction.
Giraffes have been killed for their meat and hide. So to prevent the
extinction of giraffes, we should be more concerned about them.
