Giraffe is an African mammal with a very long neck and legs. They are known for being the tallest mammal in the world, reaching up to 18 feet in height. They have a distinctive coat pattern of brown patches separated by lighter tan or white color. Giraffes are herbivores and eat mostly leaves, flowers, and fruits. They have a prehensile tongue that is up to 18 inches long, which helps them to grasp food from tall trees. Giraffes are social animals and live in groups called towers, typically consisting of 10 to 20 members. They communicate with each other using a variety of vocalizations and body language. Unfortunately, giraffes are currently classified as a vulnerable species due to habitat loss, poaching, and human-wildlife conflict.
