The Giraffe Conservation Foundation chose June 21 for World Giraffe Day, pairing the world’s tallest land animal with the Northern Hemisphere’s summer solstice. A giraffe can reach leaves well above most other browsers.
That long neck contains seven vertebrae, the same count as a human neck. A giraffe also uses its long, grasping tongue to pull leaves from branches. Watch one feed and see how precisely it can pick a mouthful around the thorns.
