giraffe

A girafa (Giraffa camelopardalis) é o animal terrestre mais alto da Terra, podendo atingir 5,5 metros de altura e pesar até 1.750 kg. Seu pescoço alongado, contendo as mesmas sete vértebras cervicais de todos os mamíferos, evoluiu para se alimentar de acácias nas savanas e bosques africanos. Animal social que vive em manadas soltas sem vínculos permanentes, comunica-se por infrassons e linguagem corporal. Vulnerável, com populações em declínio devido à perda de habitat e à caça ilegal.
