  1. giraffa camelopardalis

    The northern giraffe (Giraffa camelopardalis), also known as three-horned giraffe, is the type species of giraffe, G. camelopardalis, and is native to North Africa, although alternative taxonomic hypotheses have proposed the northern giraffe as a separate species.Once abundant throughout Africa since the 19th century, Northern giraffes ranged from Senegal, Mali and Nigeria from West Africa to up north in Egypt. The similar West African giraffes lived in Algeria and Morocco in ancient periods until their extinctions due to the Saharan dry climate.Giraffes collectively are considered Vulnerable to extinction by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), with around 97,000 wild individuals alive in 2016, of which 5,195 are Northern giraffes.

    Giraffa camelopardalis, commonly known as the giraffe, is a species of tall, long-necked mammal native to Africa. It is the tallest land animal, capable of reaching up to 19 feet in height, and is known for its distinctive spotted pattern on its coat. The giraffe's long neck, which can reach up to six feet in length, allows it to feed on the leaves of trees that other herbivores cannot reach. They are also characterized by their long legs, long eyelashes, and a prehensile tongue, which aids in their leafy meals. The giraffe is a social animal and has a lifespan of up to 25 years in the wild.
