It's height allows it to reach the leaves of tall trees. They can only eat the leaves, so if they were not very tall, they would not be able to survive. Sent by henry. x

Giraffes are found on the savannah in Africa.
There are many mountains in Africa (where giraffes) live, and due to the height, it is much colder, so there is often snow.
Whales live in the ocean, giraffes lives on the Savannah, and aren't known to go wading on the beach. So no, whales don't eat giraffes, as they never meet.

Giraffes can spend their whole lives in a zoo, if they're raised in captivity. Giraffes live for about 25 years.
Something about there height or how many bones the they have in there neck.
"Yards" should be "feet."
Yes, giraffes are common inhabitants of the savannah biome. They thrive in open grasslands with scattered trees, which are characteristic of savannah environments. Giraffes use their height to feed on leaves and buds from tall trees in the savannah.
Giraffes have adapted to environments where a main food source is leaves of trees. In areas where trees are far taller, the taller giraffes are able to eat and reproduce mor successfully and carry on the gene for greater height, this has continued, giving giraffes long necks which allow the consumption of food sources at greater heights.
