Giraffes

Giraffes are migratory plains animals, and sleep in the open. They do not have homes or nests.

yes of course! because females have longer hair than the males.

A swan's neck is proportional to its body. There are three different types of swan which is the Trumpeter Swan, Mute Swan and Tundra Swan.

i don't believe that giraffes build homes.

i was sneezed on by a giraffe when i was 4 years old at a zoo........ so i am 100% sure that they can sneeze

believe me their snot is not fun to have wiped ou of all your clothes

have you SEEN how big their nostrils are i was sneezed on by a giraffe when i was 4 years old at a zoo........ so i am 100% sure that they can sneeze

believe me their snot is not fun to have wiped ou of all your clothes

have you SEEN how big their nostrils are

yes, because if they don't have anything to chew the will get VERY angry.

Due to their size they have relatively few natural predators. Lions will prey on adult giraffes, however calves are more vulnerable and can fall prey to leopards, spotted hyenas and wild dogs. When taking water from streams, giraffes are also vulnerable to crocodiles.
Lions, wild dogs, and maybe hyenas
The only predators that giraffes have are lions and crocodiles, which they fight off with strong kicks.

well their instinct is to run for safety

there a number of disadvantages for giraffes

well firstly they cant lay or sit down and another

thing is that they cant bend to get leaves to

eat from the smaller branches

That would depend on where the giraffe lives and what time of the year it is.

GIRAFFES ARE THE BEST THING ON THIS PLANET, they are amazing creatures and so random. They're big bashful eyes are like a graceful light bulb. Even though they look clumsy, they are actually very graceful.

people say it has a blue tongue so it does not get sunburned
Giraffes use their tongues to draw leaves into their mouths when eating, so their tongues spend a fair amount of time outside their mouths. The dark color is simply pigmentation to protect their tongues from getting sunburned.

Now, most people would say that there are seven bones in the neck because there are seven cervical vertebrae (neck bones), but they would be incorrect.

There are eight bones in the neck. There are the seven cervical vertebrae, plus the hyoid bone which is located in the front part of the neck, just above the thyroid gland. The hyoid bone is a very thin and delicate bone that is somewhat "U" shaped, and serves as a point of attachment for the muscles of the larynx and the tongue.

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

The average height of an adult giraffe is 5 to 6 metres tall. Usually, a male giraffe reaches 5.5 metres in height, although some specimins have been known to reach 6 metres. Females are slightly smaller, usually reaching around 4.5 metres in height.

Giraffes have 32 teeth, just like using

i basically think cause they have lots of teeth cause there mouth is big so it can eat carrots while chewing

A giraffe can consume up to 12 gallons of water at one time when drinking from a water hole. They also obtain water from the dew on the leaves they eat and the water contained in their food.

it's because of their extremely long neck. their long neck will help them keep water.

Giraffes have a layer of thick gray skin covering their bodies. On top of the skin is fur in a distinct spotted pattern that is as individualized as fingerprints. The background is medium to reddish brown broken by splotches of light colored borders. The fur has a characteristic scent also serves a parasite repellent.

The respiratory evaporative water loss is very small.body temperature is labile with a range of at least 3.3 degrees c.Well pretty much like ours we breathe about the same way. (i acutally don't know my stupid brother told me this)(hehehehehe)

There are far too many animals that live in herds to list all of them. Here are just a few herbivores that live in herds:

Elephants

Wildebeest

Antelope

Caribou

Bison

Horses

Peccaries (wild pigs native to the American Southwest)

Hippopotamus

Here are a few carnivores that live in groups:

Lions

Dogs (including wolves, jackals, African wild dogs, etc)

Hyenas

Dolphins

Giraffes tend to live in scattered groups to enjoy the abundant foliage on the trees. When winter approaches and food gets scarce, they congregate and live as a herd to collectively look for food.

As Vegitarians, only trees.

Answer 2

No. Giraffes are herbivores, and so have no need to chase down or ambush their prey. Plant's don't run away, neither does their natural food resource have much in the way of defenses. The closest Giraffes come to hunting is wandering around looking for leaves on the top of the trees or water.

There is no evidence that Antelope eat seeds on their own. However, they are known to swallow their food whole, and since they feed off of shrubs, grasses, and young shoots, seeds are probably in their diet, whether intentionally or not.
