Pictures/Charts
If you ever see this picture the information
is about the White Giraffe in the book.
When ever you see this picture the information
is about the Albino Giraffe.
If you see this picture you should very well
know that the information is about the
common giraffe
When you see this arrow, this is the comparison of all three giraffes.
SIZE
They are the same height as both,
Albino giraffe and the common
giraffes.
The Albino giraffe is the same size as
the common giraffe and the
white giraffe form the story!
Males Can be 19 ft. tall. Females can
be 16 ft. tall.
They are all the same size but they are totally different giraffes.
Habitat
The white giraffe from
the story lives in South Africa.
They live in Africa in areas with very dense
bushes to make it harder for people and other animals to get to them.
Common giraffes live in the savannas
in Africa, where they roam in the
tall trees, arid land, dense forests, and
open plains/fields.As you have just seen, all three of them live in the same place.
Habitat
Behavior
The white giraffe from the story is magical.
They live in groups with
other giraffes and
travel in herds.
They are social
animals and travel in large un-organized
herds.Although they sometimes live in herds they can also live by themselves.
BEHAVIOR
ENDANGERED/RARE
Yes, they are very rare and endangered.
Albinos’ are rare because they have a really rare condition!
The condition makes there
pigment white.
Common giraffes are
not endangered.
As you can see, the two white giraffes are endangered, but the common giraffe is not.
Food
They eat leaves from tall trees. With their very
long necks.
Albino giraffes have the same
diet as common giraffes. They eat leaves from tall trees and get
their water from the moisture on
the leaves.
Their long necks help them to
reach tall trees an eat the leaves
off them. Giraffes can go multiple days without water.
Instead of water they get their moisture from the leaves they
eat.All these kinds of giraffes has the same diet.
WEIGHT
Although it does not say in the book,
we think that it weighs in
the same weight range.
Albino giraffes are in the same
weight range as regular giraffes.
Males weigh in between 2,400 and 3,000 lbs. Females weigh in between
1,600 and 2,600 lbs.Although we only know the weight of 2 of the giraffes. We
made a prediction and we think they all weigh in the same range.
COLOR
White and silver-gray.
Brown, orange,
and yellow.
White and
silver.
They are mostly different colors, but some of them are some of the same colors.
