Giraffes are the world's tallest mammals, thanks to their towering legs and long necks. They are graceful, well-groomed individuals moving through life with the confidence and elegance that only big game animals exhibit. Giraffes’ favorite food is the acacia, a genus of trees and shrubs that are common in their environment, but they also consume herbs, fruits, seeds and leaves of more than 100 types of plants. Giraffes are avid eaters when food is plentiful, so they can eat up to 34 kg of vegetation every day.
