Giraffes experience rapid growth during their early years, reaching up to 6 feet in height by the time they are just a year old. Their growth is primarily driven by genetics and nutrition, with mothers providing milk rich in nutrients during the first few months of life. As they mature, giraffes continue to grow, with males reaching heights of up to 18 feet and females around 14 feet. This unique height aids in foraging for leaves in tall trees, giving them a competitive advantage in their natural habitat.
