Giraffes and zebras both live on the savannas of Africa. They are plant-eating mammals with very different body shapes.
Giraffes are the tallest land animals. They can grow up to 6 meters high.
A giraffe’s long neck helps it reach leaves. It feeds mainly on acacia trees.
Giraffes have different coat patterns. Masai giraffes have star-shaped spots, while reticulated giraffes have neat polygon patches.
Zebras are relatives of horses and donkeys. They are known for their black-and-white stripes.
Each zebra has a unique stripe pattern. No two zebras look exactly the same.
There are three main zebra species. Plains zebra, Grevy’s zebra, and mountain zebra.
Zebras live in herds. Groups help them watch for predators like lions.
Stripes may confuse predators. When zebras run together, their patterns blend in motion.
Giraffes have long, dark tongues. They strip leaves from thorny branches.
Both giraffes and zebras must drink water. They gather at rivers and watering holes.
Predators such as lions and hyenas hunt giraffes and zebras. Giraffes can kick hard, and zebras can bite and run fast.
These animals shape the savanna ecosystem. They eat grasses and leaves, keeping plants in balance.
Habitat loss and hunting threaten giraffes and zebras. Some populations are declining.
Protecting savannas helps giraffes and zebras survive. They are icons of Africa’s wild landscapes.
