Do you know about Giraffes? 🦒

About this episode

This episode explores the biology and behavior of giraffes, including their long necks, hearts, and how they survive in the wild.

In this episode, we’re going to explore the giraffe. We will learn how its long neck works, how that enormous heart keeps everything moving, and how giraffes eat, sleep, and stay safe in one of the wildest places on Earth. We’ll even meet a baby giraffe, and discover that its very first moment in the world is quite dramatic. We have saved some big words for you too. Grown-ups: we value your feedback.
