The Giraffe

  The giraffe is the tallest modern land animal. It can be over 5 .5 metres tall. Its neck alone may 1.9 metres long. Yet the giraffe has only seven bones (骨) in its neck, the same number as in the human (人類) . Even a small bird has many more bones in its neck than in a tall giraffe. Each bone in giraffe's neck is small. That makes the difference. A female (雌的) giraffe gives birth to one baby at a time. The baby, called a calf, is about 1.9 metres tall at birth. But at the age of eight it is full-grown. The giraffe eats mostly leaves. Because it has a long neck, it can reach the leaves high up onthe trees.
