Giraffe (Giraffa camelopardalis)


The Giraffe (Giraffa camelopardalis) is an African even-toed ungulate mammal, the tallest of all land-living animal species. Males can be to metres (16 to 18 feet) tall and weigh up to 1,360 kilograms (3,000 pounds). [2] Females are generally slightly shorter and weigh less. The giraffe is related to deer and cattle, but is placed in a separate family, the Giraffidae, consisting only of the giraffe and its closest relative, the okapi. Its range extends from Chad to South Africa.
