Giraffes are the tallest land animal in the world. They are about 5 metres tall.

They have got very legs, a long neck a and distinctive spotted pattern. Many people first believed the giraffe was a cross between a leopard and a camel.                                                       Giraffes live primarily in savanna areas in Africa. Their extreme height allows them to eat leaves located much higher than other animals can reach.  Their long tongues are helpful in eating because they help pull leaves from the trees. They spend most of the day eating, a full-grown giraffe eats over 15kg a day.
