When a giraffe reaches the size of an adult, they become inaccessible to most predators. Instead, lions, leopards and hyenas prefer to prey on young, old or sick animals.

The giraffe is a cloven-hoofed mammal and most likely, like other representatives of the order, descended from a single common ancestor who lived during the Eocene era, about 50 million years ago. Giraffes, like most cloven-hoofed animals, have pronounced sexual dimorphism, i.e. males are much larger than females, and the ossicles (horns) on the top of the head have a slightly different appearance.

Mothers of young giraffes often organize a kindergarten: one adult female stays to look after the cubs, while the rest go out in a friendly crowd to get food.

Giraffes also have very long and strong legs, and with a blow of its powerful hoof, a giraffe can kill a large predator, even a lion. The length of one step reaches 6-8 meters, and they can run at a speed of up to 60 km/h. By the way, despite their clumsy appearance, they can also jump, overcoming barriers over one and a half meters high.

Pregnancy of a female giraffe lasts more than 14 months, and she always gives birth to only one baby. The newborn is almost 2 meters tall and weighs about 50 kg. Since the giraffe gives birth standing up, the cub falls from a height of two meters without any harm to itself. The mother immediately licks the baby, and in ten minutes it raises its head. It takes another 45 minutes for it to get back on its feet, and in a few hours the giraffe starts running.
