Exactly right! Giraffes have rough tongues..and they are very long (about 17 inches) and can grasp and wrap around (prehensile) on the desired leaves or foods.

it makes use of the lengthy neck to succeed in trees and the tongue to take the leaves from the trees. and also.. they devour flora with soldier ants. so the ants pass up their nostril so the tongue can save them from going to some distance btw.. the tongues degree 9 inches lengthy
