They are imporatant for camouflage, but they still get attacked by lions and hyenas. I is possible for a giraffe to kill a lion, to get them off they kick hard, which can be fatal in some cases.
They have spots on their fur for camouflage purposes therefore when they are searching for prey they will be virtually invisible! The yellow hides their legs in long grasses and the brown blends in with the tall trees. :)
Well Giraffes live in parts of the world that have Savannah in them so they are trying to blend into the Savannah to hide from predators trying to eat them.
Giraffes have spots so that they may blend in our camouflage themselves better in their African environment.
Well because that's just their type of texture on their skin.
It really doesn't have anything to do with and illness or anything at all.

Lions, spotted hyenas, leopards and Nile crocodiles will all attack baby giraffes.
Spotted, in the same pattern as their hair.
Giraffes are reticulated not spotted.
Giraffes adapt to their environment by, their long necks can help them to reach the tops of trees to eat leaves and fruit, also they can see a far distance to look for predator's. Their spotted bodies make them camouflage in areas.
In the book there is a white giraffe that is a legend. There are also white or lightly spotted giraffes born occasionally.
the national animal of Mali is the gorilla.
One reason giraffes must live in a relitavely warm climate, is because their coats are much too thin for cold weather. Also, like polar bears (whose skin is black) a giraffes skin has no pigments and is white. Their thin spotted coat can protect them from burning, but not from cold.
Giraffes are herbivores; they primarily eat plants, berries and fruits. Due to their size they have relatively few predators but they can fall prey to lions and crocodiles. Leopards, spotted hyenas and wild dogs can also prey on young calves.
There are many but some are lions, cheetahs, leopards, spotted hyenas, jackals, servals, giraffes, elephants, rhinos, emus, antelope, gazelles, vultures and meercats.
Giraffes have few predators due to their size, however they can fall prey to lions. Calves are more vulnerable and can also fall prey to leopards, spotted hyenas and wild dogs. Giraffes are also vulnerable to crocodiles when taking on water.
Chuck Norris kicked a spotted horse in the neck and its neck grew like a giraffe's.Its offspring had a long neck too.
You see, there used to be spotted horses. One day, Chuck Norris came up to one, and wanted to ride it. The horse was very stubborn, and did not go anywhere. Chuck Norris got so frustrated, he roundhouse kicked the horses head and left. The horse's ancestors are what we know as giraffes today.
