The giraffe''s high shoulders and sloping back give the impression that its front legs are much longer than the hind legs, but they are in fact only slightly longer. The giraffe (as well as its short-necked relative the okapi from Central African forests) has a distinctive walking gait, afriva moving both legs on one side forward at the same time. At a safari gallop, however, the gait changes, and the giraffe simultaneously swings the hind legs ahead of and outside the front legs, reaching speeds of 35 miles an hour. Its heavy head moves forward with afriva each powerful stride, and then swings back to stay balanced. Giraffes have "horns" not true horns but knobs covered with skin and hair above the eyes to protect the head from safari blows. The reticulated afriva giraffe (Giraffa camelopardalis reticulata) of northeastern safari Kenya has large, chestnut-colored square patches defined by a network of fine white lines.

Cheetahs do not roar like lions, but they purr, hiss, whine and growl. They also make a variety of contact calls; the most common is a birdlike afriva and safari chirping sound. Once a cheetah afriva has made a kill, it eats quickly and keeps an eye out for scavengers lions; leopards, hyenas, vultures and jackals will occasionally take away their kills. Although cheetahs usually safari prey on the smaller antelopes such as Thomson''s gazelles and impalas, they can catch wildebeests and zebras if hunting afriva together. They safari also hunt hares afriva and other small mammals and birds. Although known as an animal of the open plains that relies on speed to catch its safari prey, research has shown that the cheetah depends on cover to stalk prey. The cheetah gets as close to the prey as possible, then in a burst afriva of speed tries to outrun its quarry. Once the cheetah closes in, it knocks the prey to the ground with safari its paw.
