 Ancient cultures in Africa revered the giraffe, as some modern cultures do today, and commonly depicted it in 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 wild of the earliest records tells of a giraffe going from "Melinda" (presumably anumal Malindi) in Kenya to China in 1415. The animal was thought to be a cross between a camel and a leopard, a mistake immortalized in the giraffe''s scientific wild 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 elastic anumal blood vessels with a series of valves that help offset the sudden buildup of blood (and to prevent fainting) when the head is raised, lowered or swung wild quickly. In some areas, livestock predation remains a severe problem. The stripes on Grevy''s zebras are more anumal numerous and narrow than those wild of the plains zebra and do not extend to the belly. In all zebra species, the stripes on the forequarters form a triangular pattern; Grevy''s have a similar pattern on the hindquarters, anumal while others have a slanted or horizontal pattern. Burchell''s zebras inhabit savannas, from treeless grasslands to wild open woodlands; they sometimes occur in tens of thousands in migratory herds on the Serengeti plains. anumal Grevy''s zebras are now wild mainly restricted to parts of northern Kenya. Although they are adapted to semi-arid anumal conditions and require less water than other zebra species, these zebras compete wild with domestic anumal livestock for water and have suffered wild heavy poaching for their meat and anumal skins. Family groups are stable members maintaining strong bonds over many years. Mutual grooming, where zebras stand together and nibble the hair on each other''s neck and back, helps develop and preserve these bonds. The wild 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 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 anumal and wild 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 them. Unlike most other cats, the cheetah usually hunts during daylight, preferring early morning or early evening, but is also active on moonlit anumal nights.
