Gutted I missed #WorldGiraffeDay. Some cracking giraffe content on that hashtag, though.

The ‘horns’ on a giraffe’s head are actually bony protrusions called ossicones, just like those of rhinos, Male #giraffes use them to fights with other males over territory and mating rights. 🦒 #WorldGiraffeDay

More #WorldGiraffeDay thoughts.
Zafara, was a giraffe sent as a present in 1827 to Charles X. Arriving by ship, she walked the 900km from Marseilles to Paris, accompanied by naturalist Étienne Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire and several cows (for milk). A sensation everywhere and sparking a fashion craze: the first giraffe seen in Europe for three hundred years.

Apparently it is #WorldGiraffeDay day, so here is one of the lads/lasses from #FotaWildlifePark in #CoCork

@JonathanMBR I rarely see a giraffe in my life. They are so cool. Thank you for sharing this. #WorldGiraffeDay

Happy #WorldGiraffeDay!

Must we remember that the neck of the giraffe has just 7 cervical vertebrae like our neck?

Giraffes are vital to keeping ecosystems in balance. By consuming hard-to-reach foliage, they create open areas for other animals to find food.

Sadly, their populations are rapidly declining due to habitat loss and poaching.

Quick facts about giraffes
1. Girrafe's neck is too short to reach the ground.
2. Just like human's fingerprints, they have unique spots.
3. Girrafe sleep and give birth while standing, they need only 5 to 30 min sleep in every 24 hours.
4. Girrafe heart is the biggest of any land mammal with an approximately 11kg, it can pump a blood at a pressure twice that of an average human heart which is 60 litres around its body every minute.

A giraffe’s spots are much like human fingerprints. No two individual giraffes have exactly the same pattern.
