English: Rothschild's giraffes (Giraffa camelopardalis rothschildi) are characterized by their tall stature and distinct coat pattern, which consists of large, irregular patches that are more jagged and less regular than other giraffe subspecies. They have a light, creamy-brown coloration with white socks on their legs. Giraffes are herbivores that primarily feed on leaves, buds, and shoots from tall trees, particularly acacias. Their long necks and specialized tongues (which can be up to 45 cm long) help them reach high branches that other herbivores cannot access. Giraffes are not highly social animals but are found in loose, open groups called towers. These groups can vary in size and composition, with individuals coming together based on food availability and safety. Giraffes' front legs are long and powerful, supporting their large bodies. Despite their length, these legs have flexible joints that allow them to bend and reach the ground to drink water.
