Giraffes
Giraffes live in Africa. All giraffes have
patterns on their fur and each giraffe is
different.
They are very tall with long necks. They
can reach high up in the trees for flowers
and leaves to eat. A big male giraffe can
reach almost 6 metres.
They use their long tongues to get their
food. They can eat sharp prickles. They eat
all day and chew their food for a long
time.
When a giraffe drinks water it has to spread out its front legs
and bend down.
A baby giraffe is called a calf. The baby can
stand up only an hour after it is born. The calf
drinks its mother’s milk until it is big enough to
eat leaves.
Giraffes rest standing up. Sometimes they lie down to sleep,
but it is hard for them to get up.
Giraffes can see and hear very well.
Giraffes usually walk slowly, but
they can run fast if there is
danger.
They can run up to 56 kilometres an hour and
that is faster than a lion. They use their
hooves to kick any lion that comes near.
In some parts of Africa poachers catch
giraffes and kill them for their skin and
meat.
