Giraffes By Connor

Tall trees grow in the tropical grasslands. Plants in this Biome Baobab Tree Acacia Tree
Acacia trees have long thorns that keep most animals from eating the leaves but the giraffe can eat around the thorns. Baobab trees have a thick trunk to store water.
A giraffe’s favorite leaves are from the acacia tree. It also likes leaves from the jackalberry tree. A giraffe has to go to watering holes to drink water.
A giraffe is tall and has a long neck to reach and eat leaves.
Lions hunt giraffes when the giraffe is getting water at the water hole. Crocodiles will hunt giraffes too. This Animals Predators…
Giraffes go to watering holes together so that crocodiles and lions don’t attack them. Giraffes can kick really hard and run fast, like 30 miles an hour. Defenses Against Predators
I think the giraffe would not survive in another habitat if it was moved. If a giraffe was in the desert, it could not find acacia trees. The Arctic Tundra is too cold and there is too much permafrost so a giraffe would not survive. The problem with a giraffe in the forest is that it is too crowded with trees that the giraffe doesn’t eat.
