Big cats(Lions,Cheetahs,Leopards etc.) can often leap high enough in the air to get on a giraffe's back. The lion will bite the back of the giraffe and bust through the skin then hit a nerve on it's spine if the lion fails to bust skin or fails to get on the giraffe's back the lion could fall off and risk hurting its self or being trampled by a giraffe.
