In the upper neck, a complex pressure-regulation system called the rete mirabile prevents excess blood flow to the brain when the giraffe lowers its head to drink."
What do you call the sound made by a giraffe?
It doesn't make a sound.
- Actually it produces a very low pitched hum (most likely due to the very long neck and large chest) that humans can't hear. Like with bat noises you can frequency shift the giraffe noises to listen to them.

* Well there is the book, and so many people have tried to introduce *real* pictures of white giraffes to the world, who knows how they did it. But World Geographic is an educational site... and they said it is. Although there has really only been one siting, I sure believe they are real, but it is all in the eye of the beholder. You may think that the guy who spotted it made it up as well as the others..... but you would never know for sure....

There are many types of change that a giraffe goes through.

They change behind bushes because they embarrass easily. Sometimes they envy zebras for being able to pull off the stripes look, but we have the saying "a giraffe never changes its spots" for good reason.

They can also swing their hard heads against their enemy and if that doesn't work then the giraffe runs away.
