Giraffes

The patterns on a giraffe are all different (like our fingerprints) . There are a few different species of giraffe which each have different kinds of pattern, like some species have wiggly edges to the spots and some have straight-ish line on the edge of the spots.

First they meet, then the male sniffs the females behind to make sure he wants to go in there. he slowly rubs himself against her, massaging her but cheek. he inserts the D.

A giraffe eats around 65 pounds (around 30 kilos) of vegetation daily, but during lean periods, they can survive with around 15 pounds.

Giraffe's usually inhabit Savannas and Grasslands that are abundant in trees like Acacia, Commiphora, Combretum etc. They browse on twigs of tree, preferringt he Acacia, Commiphora and Terminalia. They also feed on grass and fruits.

giraffes are omnivores so they eat primarily plants and vegetation, which is abundant in trees which are, you guessed it, TALL. most other animals cant reach or climb trees so they scavenge on the ground where over time vegetation will become more scarce due to all the traffic. sooo, long neck + tall trees = more food for giraffes.

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)

Giraffe tongue has NO taste buds, tasting is done at the rear roof of the mouth. Giraffes have no vocal chords.

Environmental pressures Availability food with droughts and global warming available vegetation can be limited. A variation of a giraffe is its long neck

yes giraffes have top teeth and they sometimes bite their tongue because its so long

Giraffes have a total of thirty chromosomes, or fifteen pairs.

no my appinion they don't but heres some information they clean there ears by sticking the tongue in it.

They grab there tongue around the leaf and grab it and they move their tongue out the way so they can eat with their teeth so they don't really eat with their tongue they only grab leaves with it.

Hyenas can be active at anytime of the day but are most active at night.

they kill themselves because they don't fit in:/

A giraffe can be found on the African savanna. With their long necks they can eat the tops of trees and the spots on a giraffe are individual to each animal.

Only in that they are both mammals. The okapi are in the same family as the giraffe ("giraffidae"), in the order cetartiodactyla. The horse is in the order perissodactyla, family equidae. The okapi shape is similar to that of a giraffe but with a much shorter neck. Okapi, like giraffe, have very long tongues, which they use to strip and eat leaves and buds from trees.

Some environmental pressures are lack of food, droughts, and also carnivores.

Probably the very common "Box Turtle". These turtles usually spend their entire long life in an area about the size of 3 acres near where they were born. If you see one in the wild, please leave it there. They are very capable of taking care of themselves. If it is in the street, well then by all means, please move it out the street, but DO NOT take it home. It will not do well out of the wild, and will have eating/nutrition issues. Unfortunately all of this info comes from a bad experience when a co-worker tried to "rescue" one from a street near work. The little fellow did not do well.

There are nine recognised sub-species of giraffe, each with its own colouring and pattern. These are: * Reticulated Giraffe (also known as the Somali Giraffe) - This Giraffe has large polygonal spots of a liver colouring, which are outlined by a network of bright white lines. The spots may sometimes appear deep red and may also cover the legs. This Giraffe is found in Northeast Kenya, Ethiopia and Somalia. * Angolan Giraffe (Also known as the Smoky Giraffe) - this sub species is donned with large spots and some notches around the edges, which extend down the entire lower leg. They can be found in Angola and Zambia. * Kordofan Giraffe - This Giraffe is recognised by having smaller, more irregular spots that cover the inner legs. It can be found in western and south-western Sudan. * Masai Giraffe (also known as the Kilimanjaro Giraffe) - These have jagged edged, vine leaf spots of a dark chocolate colouring on a yellowish background. They are normally found in central and southern parts of Kenya and also Tanzania. * Nubian Giraffe - This species has large four sided spots of a chestnut brown colour, with an off-white background. They have no spots on either the inner legs or below the hocks. It can be found in Sudan and North eastern Congo. * Rothschild Giraffe (also known as the Naringo Giraffe and the Ugandan Giraffe) - These animals have deep brown, blotched or rectangular spots, which are poorly defined with cream lines. The hocks may also be spotted. They are found in Uganda and north central Kenya. * South African Giraffe - These have rounded, blotchy spots with star like extensions on a light tan background. These run down to the hooves. They can be found in South Africa, Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe and Mozambique. * Thornicorft Giraffes (also known as the Rhodesian Giraffe) - These have star shaped or leafy spots the extend down the lower leg. They can be found in Zambia. * West African Giraffe (also known as the Nigerian Giraffe) - This Giraffe species have numerous pale, yellowish red spots. They are found in Niger and Cameroon.

No, giraffes are wild, but they are generally not aggressive or dangerous. Wild animals are those that live in their natural environments, whereas tame animals are those that have been tamed by humans and are accustomed to living in human environments like pets.

giraffes haev a large and powerful heart so that it can get its blood pressuer high enough to be able to flow up its neck to its brain.

No, they are completely different animals.

Giraffes, like many wild animals, travel in groups. They forage for food, spending a great part of every day chomping and tearing off leaves from the highest branches of trees. Also like other wild animals, they must find water sources. Usually, the paths to food and water are well established as places their mothers, and their mothers, and so on have visited through hundreds of years.

Giraffes mate and mothers care for their babies. They must be most vigilant against predators which try to isolate the babies first.

Giraffes cannot lay down because their necks are so heavy they would be unable to stand without human assistance. So they sleep standing up. At any given time, some in the group may be sleeping while others are awake.

Like most wild animals living in high temperatures, giraffes battle insects. So you might likely see giraffes swatting their tails or stamping a foot because an insect is annoying them. They have long eyelashes which helps keep insects from their eyes.

A baby giraffe looks like a smaller version of an adult giraffe. If in the first few minutes of the birth, the baby giraffe will be rather wobbly as it tries to stand. It is important that the baby is soon able to walk and run along side their parents, as there are many predators in the wild.

no they are not they live in a zoo and are all well feed and have enough atention so NO!~!~!

Giraffes are endangered species. The other giraffes species haven't become endangered for so many reasons. They aren't feared by humans and there not killed for any medicine remedies. They don't compete for food. Studies say there's only about 445 Uganda giraffes. They don't eat farmers' crops. Finally, they are admired the world over for their enormous size, natural beauty, and mild nature.
