The Giraffa, commonly known as the giraffe, is the tallest land animal, native to Africa. It is easily recognized by its long neck, which can reach up to 6 feet, and its distinctive coat pattern of irregular brown patches on a lighter background. Giraffes primarily inhabit savannas and open woodlands, where they feed on leaves, fruits, and flowers from tall trees. Giraffes are social animals, often found in loose herds. They have a unique way of walking, moving both legs on one side of their body and then the other. Their long legs and necks help them spot predators from a distance, making them well-adapted to their environment.
