DID YOU KNOW?
Female giraffes give birth standing up. The result?Newborns are welcomed to the world with a 1.5m drop to the ground! Ouch!!
But this helps to break the umbilical cord, protect the baby's long neck and encourage the baby to take her first breath and these infants are quick to get on their feet- within 30 minutes they are standing, and only hours later they are able to run with their mothers.
