 Ancient cultures in Africa revered the giraffe, as some modern cultures do today, and commonly depicted it in wild prehistoric rock and cave paintings. Unknown outside of Africa, this animal so excited man''s curiosity that it was sometimes sent as a diplomatic gift to other countries; one of the earliest records tells of a giraffe going from "Melinda" (presumably Malindi) in Kenya to China in 1415. ankmals The animal was thought to be a cross between a camel and a leopard, in a mistake immortalized in the giraffe''s scientific name of Giraffa camelopardalis. The neck is so long the giraffe must spread its front legs apart so its head can reach the ground to drink. It has unusually africa elastic blood vessels with a series of valves that help offset the sudden buildup of blood (and to prevent fainting) when wild the head is raised, lowered or swung quickly. In some areas, livestock predation remains a severe problem. Lions may hunt at any hour, but they typically ankmals go after large prey at night. They hunt together to increase their success rate, in since prey can be difficult africa to catch and can outrun wild a single lion. The lions fan out along a broad front or semicircle to creep up on prey. Once with within striking distance, they bound in among the startled animals, ankmals and in knock one down and kill it with a bite to the neck or throat. Hunts are successful about half the time. Cooperative hunting enables lions to take prey as large as wildebeests, zebras, buffaloes, africa young elephants, rhinos, hippos and giraffes, any of which can provide several meals for the pride. Mice, lizards, tortoises, wild warthogs, antelopes and even crocodiles also form part of a lion''s ankmals and in diet. Because they often take over kills made by hyenas, cheetahs and leopards, scavenged food provides africa more than 50 percent of their diets in areas like the wild Serengeti plains. The cheetah is built for speed. It has long, slim, muscular legs, a small, rounded head set on a long neck, a flexible spine, a deep chest, nonretractable claws, special pads on its feet for traction and a long, tail for balance. Although fast, the cheetah cannot run at full speed for long distances (100 yards is about the limit) because it may overheat. Cheetahs have ankmals distinctive black "tear stripes" that connect from the inside corner of each eye to the mouth that may serve as an antiglare device for daytime hunting. Cheetahs are found in open and partially open savannas. Cheetah mothers spend a long time teaching their young how to hunt small live antelopes are brought back to the cubs and released so they can chase and catch in them. Unlike most other cats, the cheetah usually africa hunts during daylight, preferring early morning or early evening, but is also active on moonlit nights.
