The great height of the animal

in #photography7 years ago

I watched these giraffes in the Kaliningrad zoo.

Male height reaches six meters!!! Female giraffes have five meters.

Giraffe-herbivore. Having a long neck, giraffe got a competitive advantage in the extraction of food, foliage is available to him at an inaccessible height for many herbivores.

All my assumptions about the weight of a giraffe have failed. I could not even imagine that these long, and seemingly fragile legs, so gracefully move on the planet earth 1.5 tons of weight! Females weigh no more than 800 kg.

In the wild, life expectancy is 25 years.
Habitat-South and South-East of the Sahara desert in the African Savannah.

But that's not all. To be continued!

Thank you all for your attention and support.

Великолепные фото. :-5 метров я в шоке. Это окна второго этажа.

Ничего себе, полторы тонны! Невероятное искусство маскировать вес :)

а ведь стройняшка с виду)))
