Giraffes are fascinating creatures, known for their incredible height and iconic long necks. Interestingly, their necks are not as long as they may appear, consisting of only seven vertebrae just like those of other mammals, including humans. However, each individual vertebra in a giraffe's neck can measure up to 10 inches long, providing them with the flexibility to reach high branches and leaves for food. Moreover, these charismatic animals possess a unique cardiovascular system, featuring a powerful heart that can weigh up to 25 pounds and measure 2 feet long. This system allows giraffes to maintain adequate blood flow throughout their long necks and legs, even in the face of gravity's challenges. The incredible adaptations and distinctive features of giraffes make them truly captivating creatures of the animal kingdom.
