The Camelopardalis is mentioned in the book of Deuteronomy. The name translates as a description between a camel and a leopard, and some scholars had assumes that this was a description of the giraffe. However, other biblical scholars have argued that giraffes have never been indigenous to Israel or the surrounding area, and that the name probably refers to the mouflin, a wild sheep that lives in that area.
Other than this questionable reference, The Bible does not mention giraffes.
