Africa's Tallest Giant, The Giraffe 🦒

Welcome to our World Giraffe Day 2024 celebration! 🦒 This year, we're honoring Africa's Tallest Giants with the theme "Honoring Africa's Tallest Giants: A Personal Call to Action". Join us on June 21st, the longest day of the year, as we raise awareness and support for giraffes in the wild. Giraffes are the tallest living land animals, with adult males reaching up to 5.5 meters tall. The tallest recorded male was 5.88 meters (19.3 ft), and the tallest recorded female was 5.17 meters.
These majestic creatures live in the dry savannahs of Africa, roaming among the open plains and woodlands. Their height not only grants them a commanding view of their surroundings but also helps them keep a lookout for predators such as lions and hyenas.
Did you know that giraffes are herbivores, with their favourite food being the leaves and buds of the acacia tree? Their long necks, which consist of the same number of neck bones (seven) as humans, allow them to reach the treetops where these delicious treats grow. Each giraffe has a unique pattern of spots, much like a fingerprint, which aids in camouflage when needed.
Despite their towering stature, giraffes sleep only about 4.5 hours a day, often in short naps that last just a minute or two at a time. They communicate through sounds, including bellowing, snorting, hissing, and flute-like noises.
