Questions and answers

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do giraffes have dark blue or black tongues?
Their prehensile tongues contain dense melanin pigments that protect the tissue against sunburn while feeding high up in sunny tree canopies for hours each day.
How tall can an adult giraffe grow?
Adult male giraffes can reach heights of eighteen feet, making them tall enough to look directly into second-story building windows.
Do any two giraffes have the same spot pattern?
No, every giraffe has a unique pattern of spots, much like human fingerprints, which helps individual animals recognize one another in a herd.
