Giraffes can grow to more than four meters in height in five years.
Just as we humans can identify ourselves from finger prints, Zebras identify one another from their stripes while Giraffes identify each other from their patches.
A giraffe's tongue can grow up to a length of 45 centimeters.
A giraffe can weigh up to 1275 kilograms while a newborn calf stands at 2 meters and can weigh up to 65 kilograms.
