Long Neck
"Long Neck" refers to a specific type of giraffe, known for its exceptionally long neck, which can reach up to six feet in length. This unique adaptation allows giraffes to browse leaves and fruits high in trees, giving them access to food sources that many other herbivores cannot reach.
The long neck also plays a role in social interactions among giraffes. Males often engage in a behavior called "necking," where they swing their necks to strike each other, establishing dominance and competing for mates. This fascinating behavior highlights the importance of their long necks beyond just feeding.
