3. Giraffes are the tallest land animals. A giraffe could look into a second-story window without even having to stand on its tiptoes! There is only one species of giraffe. The recognized subspecies include reticulated, Nubian, Uganda or Baringo, Masai, Angolan, and southern. The different kinds can be recognized by their spots and also by where they live in Africa. Masai giraffes, from Kenya, have spots that look like oak leaves. Other kinds have a square-shaped pattern that looks like the giraffe is covered by a net. Some zoologists think that the giraffe's pattern is for camouflage. Both male and female giraffes have two distinct, hair- covered horns called ossicones. Male giraffes use their horns to playfully fight with one another. That just proves how much more awesome I am!

The legs of a giraffe are also 6 feet long. The back legs look shorter than the front legs, but they are about the same length. Wow!!!
