giraffe
The tallest living animal on Earth, giraffes can reach 5.5 meters in height and weigh up to 1,750 kg.

Social animals living in loose herds with no permanent bonds, giraffes communicate through infrasound and body language. Vulnerable, with populations declining due to habitat loss and poaching.
