Giraffes

Giraffes are animals based on the species Giraffa camelopardis. 
There was a famous giraffe who belonged to a French zoo. It had been three centuries since Europe had owned one. She created an enormous impact on French culture, resulting in a giraffe hype. Tons of clothing patterns, art, objects, hairstyles were based off of her. They depicted features of her, accurate and inspire, including spots, height, and various aspects of her body. 
In American culture giraffes are infamous for their height. As the tallest living land animal, they are depicted as such. Frequently their necks are made more flexible and even prehensile than they really are. They connected with sauropods due to their long necks. Often they may be depicted as hugging with their necks, and it is noted in many scientific books and documentaries that this is an incorrect notion based off of males fighting for in-heat females. Giraffes are depicted as gentle but big, which is incorrect. It could be due to their soft eyes as well as their infrequency of attacking humans. They are an important African mammal for American culture.
