Giraffes are a bit large for a cheetah; generally they would prefer to go after smaller prey; but would probably not hesitate to finish off a sick or injured giraffe if they could.No, a giraffe is much, much too big for a cheetah to hunt. If a cheetah happened to pass by a dead one that maybe a pride of lions had killed, the cheetah still wouldn't eat it. Cheetahs only eat what they kill.
