Giraffes are incredibly tall. In fact, girrafes are taller than all the other animals in the world. Adult giraffes can grow ro six meteres - that's taller than a typical house ! Baby giraffes are about two meters tall when they are born - they're bogger than an adult human. This incredible height gives giraffes an important advanteg on the savannah because they can see when lions are in the area. That's why you can often see antelopes and zebras with giraffes. It's less dangerous than being alone.

Giraffes are giant-sized in many ways. Adult giraffes weigh 850 - 1,270 kilograms. That's heavier than a family car! And they have an enormous appetite - adults eat about 60 kilograms of leaves every day.They take leaves off tall trees with their 53 centimetre- long tongues. Their large feet are wider than dinner plates.

Perhaps surpisingly, giraffes are very fast. Even baby giraffes can run at about 50 kilometres per hour. That's quicker than Lance Armstrongs average speed in the Tour de France, but it's solwer than a cheetah. Cheetahs can run at 80 kilometres per hour. Luckily for giraffes, cheetahs aren't strong enough to attack them - the giraffes are too heavy. In fact, only lions are strong enough to attack young or weak giraffes. Thanks to its giant size, a giraffe's life is better than many other savannah animals.
