Giraffids are a family of mammals that includes modern-day giraffes and their closest relatives, the okapis. They are known for their long necks and legs, which help them reach high vegetation in their natural habitats. Giraffids are primarily found in Africa, where they inhabit savannas, woodlands, and forests. These animals are herbivorous, feeding mainly on leaves, fruits, and flowers. Giraffids have unique adaptations, such as a specialized cardiovascular system that supports their tall stature. Their distinctive coat patterns also provide camouflage in their environments, helping them evade predators.
