How does it get food? What does it eat?
Where does it live, and what are some of its habits?
Giraffes live in African savannas, where they can move freely among open plains and areas with tall trees.
Who are it’s enemies, and how does it defend itself?
The only real threat to Giraffes are humans. They kill for their skin and use parts for good luck in African societies. The giraffe is fast and can use its neck to swing its head at certain things if frightened or angered.
