Defending themselves
Giraffes are so big that they really don't need to hide from predators. Besides humans, they are hunted only by lions and crocodiles. When they have to, giraffes defend themselves with a deadly kick. Their speed, the way they move, and their body designs also help them to escape predators if they need to. Giraffes have a way of moving, or gait, in which both the front and back legs on one side move forward together, then the other two legs on the other side move forward. It’s called "pacing." Giraffes can run very fast—around 30 miles (48 kilometers) an hour.

The voracious giraffe gobbler---usually female. The giraffe gobbler also eats bears, seals, and elephants. Being a typical female, the first thing she does is bite their heads off. Ten minutes later, she asks her mommy for another box of animal crackers.
