BE SOCIAL LIKE A GIRAFFE
Groups of giraffes are called “towers.”
They live in herds of about 10 to 20 individuals and they can be up to 50 members.
Giraffes only need 5 to 30 minutes of sleep in a 24-hour period!
Giraffes can rest while standing, but they sometimes also lie down with their head resting on their rump. That’s a vulnerable position for a giraffe, though, so usually one herd member stays on guard.
Their speed, the way they move, and their body designs also help them to escape predators if they need to.
Giraffes defend themselves with a deadly kick, karate-style.

Giraffes have to bend a long way down to drink from a lake or stream.
When they're bent over, it is easier for a predator, like a crocodile, to grab hold of the giraffe. So, giraffes go to a watering hole together and take turns watching for predators.
The mother leaves her calf together with other calves in a "nursery."
One of the moms stays to babysit while the others go out to eat and socialize. In the nursery, the calves develop physical and social skills through play.

Despite their size, giraffes are incredibly peaceful animals.
They very rarely engage in fights. While males sometimes hit their necks against each other in a behaviour known as "necking," this rarely results in any injury.
Giraffes move in harmony, their towering forms creating a mesmerizing spectacle.
Likewise, we must unite with grace. Our community becomes stronger when we embrace diversity, celebrate differences, and stand together.
