Wildlife & Animals on Instagram: "Baby giraffes, known as calves, are born after a gestation period of about 15 months, standing tall at around 6 feet tall. Fun fact: when they’re born, calves can already run and walk within hours, an essential skill for keeping up with their herd and escaping predators. Their long legs help them reach high branches for feeding, but it also means they have a unique way of drinking water—often having to awkwardly splay their legs to reach down to the ground! Cred

Our giraffe calves are getting on super well and can regularly be seen running and playing together. They don’t know it, but they’re one of the rarest giraffe subspecies, with only around 8,500 left in the wild. Giraffes are facing more and more pressure as a result of climate change, so by doing your bit to tackle the climate crisis at home, you will be helping out giraffe calves in the wild. | Whipsnade Zoo

Dwayne is definitely unique. Our three giraffe calves each have their own unique personalities, and it's been so fun watching them explore the world around them. Dwayne is the third one shown and he makes us laugh every day. Did you know Tanganyika is home to one of the largest giraffe herds in the country? They're also the very first friendly faces to greet you when you walk into the park. #giraffe #babygiraffe | Tanganyika Wildlife Park

Did you know that over half of giraffe calves don't make it through their first year? Predation is a major threat, with hyenas, wild dogs, and leopards targeting the young. Adult giraffes face fewer dangers, mainly from lions. Nature is tough! #GiraffeFacts #WildlifeSurvival #AnimalKingdom #NatureIsWild From: Animal Society Series 01 Episode 02 | Real Wild
