Best Answer

The mother usually cleans the calf with its tongue such as a cat. The mother giraffe will then use its long neck to lift the calf to its feet. It does this by transforming its neck into a lasso type contraption. Once the calf is up and standing it will be beaten into the heard if it's male and sexed in if female. Once the giraffe is officially part of the heard it will start its life as a contributing member of society.
