True Facts: The Wacky Giraffe

[@Grim_Beard]

The reason the giraffe's neck is so long is that otherwise its head would be floating, detached, about ten feet above the rest of its body and that would be silly.

what happen if Africa designed by Ubisoft

[@cycoholic]

No silly. Everyone knows that the giraffe was one of the first animals. And then the planet got hit by a space rock, which shoved the planet hard downwards. This happened so suddenly that the poor giraffes body followed the planet downloads immediately, but their head was a little slower, due to it being a lot lighter. And that is how their neck got so long. 😜

Because of the theory of relativity, and the difference in altitude between your likely location and Africa, and the definite difference in overall soil and rock densities between you and the planets core and a random point in Africa and the planet's core. It is untrue that very 60 seconds a minute passes in Africa. In fact, we cant even say that every 60 seconds a minute passes at our feet.

Okay, so with the males fighting, it looks all ‘drunken-bar like’, but the force is intense. The sound when they clash is spectacular. I have seen a few males fight, it really is humbling. Our giraffes are fairly tame (they are used to cars stopping and staring as I live on a shared private nature reserve, but they are not feeding tame), but when the males fight, it is terrifying. If you ever want to experience your own smallness, try ‘stalking’ a giraffe. I once was 5 meters away from one, looking at each other… I never felt so small. (For clarification, it was stalking in the observation sense, I don’t hunt and never will)

8:00 “You can’t learn anything from that!” I loved the okapi tangent. I took a mammalogy course in college (I was a biology major) and the two animals that generated the most debate and discussion in the entire course were the okapi and the pangolin. This is genius!

[@Abigail-hu5wf]

Wait why did people argue about the pangolin. It's a wonderful animal. 12/10.

[@HEDGE1011]

Abigail V I also love pangolins, but I said “debate and discussion” not “argument” because we were all intrigued by (among other things) the morphology, advantages, and disadvantages of keratinous scales and their amazing front claws. These among other features engendered much fascination among us all. Pangolins are beautiful and interesting animals that are sadly being killed at an alarming rate by ignorant people who largely make bogus claims about their body parts being effective in traditional “medicine”.

The name camilopardalis is greek, it comes from the greek word for camel and the word "pardalis", which means colourful or patterned. So, basically camilopardalis (greek word for giraffe) means "the colourful, patterned camel". To be fair, their face does look like a camel. Leopard, similarly, literally means "the colourful patterned lion". Kinda accurate me thinks 😂 fun fact, even today greeks use the word "pardali" for colourful clothes, animals and, even, colourful characters. If you are called pardalos by a greek it could be a playful tease or a backhanded compliment or an offense depending on how it's used.

@@csweezey18 while I'm no expert, the main point is to slice the animal's neck so as to kill as quickly and to let out as much blood as possible. Blood is considered profane, and shouldn't contaminate the meat. Also, you can probably imagine the logistical difficulties in getting giraffes to practice on...

[@meggerz5687]

Ufasdfgewaf It’s a play on words “They have a prehensile tongue” Prehensile comes from Latin meaning ability to grasp. Like our hands and tails on some monkeys. It is a root word. “But not hensile.. just a little before that” Pre- is usually a prefix (part of a world that is added to make a new word) meaning before. Ex: preview- to see before , prevent- to stop something before it can happen Hensile is not a word in English. so the sentence sounds off until it’s explained that it’s not hensile but before that (prehensile).
