African  Wood Giraffe Carvings

The giraffes is by far the biggest ruminant and the tallest mammal. They have very long neck with short, upstanding mane, high shoulders sloping steeply to hindquarters; long legs nearly equal in length. They are equipped to exploit a 6 foot band of foliage beyond reach of all other terrestrial browsers except the elephant. The 18 inch (45 cm) tongue and a modified atlas-axis joint that lets the head extend vertically further increase the height advantage. Giraffes can browse crowns of small trees; big bulls can reach 19 feet, a yard higher than cows. They mainly feed on broad leafed deciduous foliage in the rains and on evergreen species at other seasons. They drink every 2 to 3 days when water is available but also have the ability to extract water from green leaves.
