Why do giraffes have long necks? by Royden Giles
Giraffes have long necks because they can reach the tippy tops of the trees to eat the leaves.
He can see danger coming by his long neck. Being so tall helps him to save himself from being killed because he can see humans, lions and crocodiles coming.
One giraffe fights with the other giraffe with its neck. Its called necking. They bump their heads and necks together.
They also kick and then run 30 miles per hour.
When a baby giraffe is born he’s a man’s size. A giraffe’s neck can be more than 7ft long.
