介绍:
This is a baby giraffe.He is only 20 minutes old.His mother is helping him stand up.He is 180 centimetres tall.That's taller than many people.
Giraffes live in Africa.They have very long necks,and they like to eat leaves from high up in the tree.They have to look out for lions.Lions are dangerous.They like to eat baby giraffes! When a lion is near,a mother giraffe stands over her baby.She kicks the lion away.
