Giraffes are primarily found in savannas, grasslands, and open woodlands. They are herbivores and have a specialized diet that consists of leaves, flowers, fruits, and bark. Giraffes have a long tongue that they use to pluck leaves from trees, and they have a unique digestive system that allows them to extract nutrients from tough and fibrous plant material.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Behavior\"><\/span>Behavior<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Giraffes are social animals and live in groups called towers or herds. Tower is a more appropriate term for a group of giraffes, as they are known for their height. Males have a more solitary lifestyle and tend to associate with other males only during the mating season. Giraffes are known for their unique behavior of &#8220;necking,&#8221; which involves two males using their long necks to engage in combat.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"QaZHZO8Kpp\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/storymaker.cc\/pet\/%e0%b8%aa%e0%b8%b2%e0%b8%a2%e0%b8%9e%e0%b8%b1%e0%b8%99%e0%b8%98%e0%b8%b8%e0%b9%8c%e0%b8%aa%e0%b8%b1%e0%b8%95%e0%b8%a7%e0%b9%8c%e0%b9%81%e0%b8%84%e0%b8%a3%e0%b8%b0\/\">10 \u0e2a\u0e32\u0e22\u0e1e\u0e31\u0e19\u0e18\u0e38\u0e4c\u0e2a\u0e31\u0e15\u0e27\u0e4c\u0e41\u0e04\u0e23\u0e30 \u0e2a\u0e31\u0e15\u0e27\u0e4c\u0e08\u0e34\u0e4b\u0e27 \u0e19\u0e48\u0e32\u0e23\u0e31\u0e01\u0e19\u0e48\u0e32\u0e40\u0e25\u0e35\u0e49\u0e22\u0e07<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><div class=\"embed-responsive\"><iframe class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"&#8220;10 \u0e2a\u0e32\u0e22\u0e1e\u0e31\u0e19\u0e18\u0e38\u0e4c\u0e2a\u0e31\u0e15\u0e27\u0e4c\u0e41\u0e04\u0e23\u0e30 \u0e2a\u0e31\u0e15\u0e27\u0e4c\u0e08\u0e34\u0e4b\u0e27 \u0e19\u0e48\u0e32\u0e23\u0e31\u0e01\u0e19\u0e48\u0e32\u0e40\u0e25\u0e35\u0e49\u0e22\u0e07&#8221; &#8212; Story Maker\" src=\"https:\/\/storymaker.cc\/pet\/%e0%b8%aa%e0%b8%b2%e0%b8%a2%e0%b8%9e%e0%b8%b1%e0%b8%99%e0%b8%98%e0%b8%b8%e0%b9%8c%e0%b8%aa%e0%b8%b1%e0%b8%95%e0%b8%a7%e0%b9%8c%e0%b9%81%e0%b8%84%e0%b8%a3%e0%b8%b0\/embed\/#?secret=Yyw2cg6uLf#?secret=QaZHZO8Kpp\" data-secret=\"QaZHZO8Kpp\" width=\"500\" height=\"282\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/div><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conservation_Status\"><\/span>Conservation Status<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Giraffes face various threats in the wild, including habitat loss, poaching, and civil unrest. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iucn.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The International Union for Conservation of Nature<\/a> (IUCN) has listed all nine species of giraffe as &#8220;vulnerable&#8221; or &#8220;endangered.&#8221; Several conservation efforts are underway to protect giraffes, including habitat restoration, anti-poaching measures, and captive breeding programs.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span>Conclusion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Giraffes are one of the most iconic <a href=\"https:\/\/akatommychong.com\/category\/animal\/\">animals<\/a> in the world, and their distinctive features make them stand out from other wildlife.
