Also, most people dont even have a good grasp on how big giraffes are anyways!

I once went to a zoo that had an elevated platform extending into the giraffe's habitat so that you could stand face to face with them. Their heads are as big as a normal human, like 5 feet from crown to chin!

Ah yes the Newfoundland garden giraffe, often times overlooked due to the Canadian House Hippo.

I wish there was Hippos at the white house.
