Giraffes

GIRAFFES have long eyelashes because it helps them to keep little fragments of wood falling into their eyes as they grab the leaves of the tree or bush. also, female giraffes flirt by fluttering their eyelashes at the male giraffe they like.

they died out 7 years ago

I have never heard of a giraffe killing themselves by getting tangled up. But, this may have happened, so my suggestion to you is that, because of how long their necks are, during a giraffe fight two males could've gotten their necks twisted around each others' necks too tightly.

Giraffes and humans are both mammals and therefore share many characteristics. There are things like:

* They are both Vertebrates, meaning that they both have back bones. In fact Giraffe and humans have the same number of vertebra, this number being seven. * Both humans and Giraffes have a heart to pump oxygenated blood around their body. * Both have muscles, bones and tissues made up of very similar substances. * Humans and giraffes both have lungs used to inhale oxygen and exhale waste products, such as carbon dioxide. * Giraffes have red blood, meaning blood that carries oxygen around the body. * Both are warm blooded animals, meaning that they control their body's temperature via internal means, such as shivering or sweating. * Both require nutrients found in food and need water to survive.

* Both have brains, ribs, spines and other main anatomical features. * Giraffes and humans both give birth to live young and suckle their young with milk.

They drink water because if they didn't they would die, and if is a way of keeping their body working in the heat of the African day.

A giraffe is not an invertebrate, because it has a vertebral column, or a spine. All mammals, like giraffes, are vertebrates that do have backbones, internal skeletons, and the other characteristics of vertebrates (see links for more information on vertebrates and invertebrates). Some examples of invertebrates are insects, mollusks, starfish, jellyfish, earthworms, and other animals and sea creatures that are mostly "mush".

Zebra isn't a word in the Latin language so it is plainly just zebra.

Giraffes are even toed ungulates (they have two toes) and are more closely related to camels. Giraffes have multiple (4) stomachs. Giraffes chew cud.

Giraffe coloration is white to creamy white backgrounds with various shapes and colors of spots (depending of subspecies) ranging from golden to red to nearly black. Giraffes have skin covered horns. Giraffes don't have top front teeth, they have a hard, toothless palate.

Zebras are odd toed ungulates (they have one toe/hoof) and are more closely related to horses and donkeys. Zebras have a simple stomach. Zebras are

striped and the normal color is black with white. Zebras don't have horns, have both upper and lower front teeth.

omg! these suckers are long. about the size of an average cabbage patch kid doll. This isn't good because they use them to catch people and then take them to their lair.

Giraffe's are the tallest land animals on earth. They are well known for their extremely long neck and legs. It is around 5 to 6 meters tall (Around 16 to 20 feet). Males are usually taller and heavier than females. A male giraffe can weigh an average of around 1200 kilograms (2600 pounds) while females weigh an average of around 830 kilograms (1800 pounds)

Yes. Male giraffes tend to be taller, have larger bumps between their eyes, and the "horns" on their head are larger.

Gestation in a Giraffe Mother lasts for around 400 to 460 days. This works out to nearly 13 to 15 months of pregnancy. Baby Giraffe's are born after nearly 400+ days of preganancy. At birth, they are around 6 feet tall. That is 1.8 meters height at birth. They weigh around 100 to 150 pounds at birth

A giraffe's predators are animals like lions, spotted hyenas, leopards and crocodiles, who will all take giraffe calves when the opportunity arises. Adult giraffes are very large animals, and the only predators capable of taking them on are lions. By working together, they are able to kill adult giraffes, but this is not very common - a giraffe's kick can kill a lion, and they usually prefer to hunt less dangerous prey.

A common length of the esophagus of a giraffe is about 40 inches. That compares to about 8 to 10 inches in a human being.

It possess 7 vertebrae in neck .

The things on the top of the giraffes head is called Ossicones. (Also called horn)

Another thing about the ossicones is that some believe the horns are cooling towers and release heat. Others that it's just a way to protect their heads.

They are both birds

A rhinoceros is a mammal, because it has viviparous birth--its babies live off a placenta in utero and are born live, and because it nurses its young.

A Giraffe needs to drink around 2 litres of water every dayA giraffe needs to drink because if they don't drink water they can get very sick.

Well you see first an adult Male and Female Zebra mate then after 12 months the baby Zebra is born. After a few days the mother keeps the baby from other Zebras so the baby can get to know her stripes. After that they join the heard after that after about 3 years the baby is now a full adult. Now that former baby zebra is now in the stage of its life to mate then the whole reproduction cycle starts again!

his name is Melman

Open the door, and put it in. That is, after you take the elephant out.
