G is for Giraffe, National Zoological Park, Delhi

view map


The world’s tallest animal, a giraffe can easily look into a second-storey window. Its height,
which can be up to 4 m, allows it to browse on high foliage, as well as to employ its highly
developed sense of sight to see farther than any terrestrial creature. This “bird’s-eye view” is
also the animal’s principal defence against predators, allowing it to spot danger. Their buff-
coloured hide, with spots of darker brown, provides excellent camouflage, which is another aid to
their survival.
