*Schleich Female Giraffe

Description

Why
do giraffes have spots? It is hard to imagine that they would serve as
camouflage for such large animals. But it is true: From afar, giraffes
look like a big tree.
Despite
the camouflage spots in their fur, giraffes do not always remain
undetected by predators. But they know to defend themselves and can kick
really hard with their front hooves. They mainly do this if they want
to protect their young, because the adult animals are normally rarely
attacked. Anyone who has the opportunity to look at giraffes from close
up can easily distinguish the females from the males. They are somewhat
smaller and have thin horns with a small tuft of fur on top. Giraffe
bulls, in contrast, have thick horns with no fur on top.
