Giraffes
By: Jessica Sanchez
Giraffes are originated from giraffiadae. Since giraffes originate from giraffiadae, they have strong muscles and are fast. Even as a calf, the giraffes run, play, and sometimes train if in a group. Using their tongues or lips, the giraffes eat at least 95% of their diet using their necks to reach tall trees. When giraffes finish these activities and sleep, they do so standing up incase of predators.
