Fun Facts

The giraffe is the tallest mammal on earth and can reach a height of 19 feet. They use their height as well as their excellent vision to scan the grasslands where they look for predators such as lions, hyenas and wild dogs. After a pregnancy lasting 15 months, a newborn giraffe is born weighing as much as 150 pounds and standing 6 feet tall. The calves are always in danger of falling prey to the predators.

Sleeping & Lifespan

The giraffe usually sleeps standing up so that they can quickly escape a predator if needed. For those giraffes who do live to adulthood, they can expect a lifespan of about 25 years in the wild.
