Giraffes are unique mammals known for their long necks and legs, inhabiting sub-Saharan Africa. They feed mainly on Acacia leaves, using a process called rumination. Giraffes exhibit a fission-fusion social structure, with varying group sizes and dynamics. Reproduction is polygamous, with no fixed mating season. Calves are born after a 15-month gestation and are cared for by their mothers. Giraffes face predation threats, primarily to calves, and communicate through various sounds. Despite their size, they occasionally consume carrion.
