Did you know that a giraffe can eat up to 34kg of leaves a day—and they do it navigating some of the sharpest thorns in the bush? 🦒🌿

Our latest Reel takes a fascinating, close-up look at these elegant giants during lunch hour! It is absolutely mesmerizing to watch them wrap their long, prehensile tongues around acacia branches, effortlessly stripping away the green leaves while completely ignoring the spikes.

Here are a few quick mind-blowing facts you’ll appreciate next time you watch them eat:
The Tongue: Their tongues can grow up to 45cm long and are a deep bluish-purple color to prevent getting sunburned while they reach for food all day!
Built-In Protection: Their thick, sticky saliva acts like a natural coating to protect their mouths and stomachs from any stray thorns they happen to swallow.

There is something so peaceful and grounding about pulling up next to a journey of giraffes and just listening to them crunch away against the quiet backdrop of the bush.

Ready to experience the quiet magic of the wild for yourself? Let’s plan your next getaway.
