“Neck and Neck” – Giraffe Art Prints

Giraffes are one of those fascinating animals which you can’t help but smile at. Their appearance is so unusual, and rather comical in many ways, that they’ve become quite iconic. Giraffes are the tallest mammals on the planet, with their trademark long necks. Yet amusingly, their necks are actually too short for them to reach the ground. This is why when giraffes drink, they have to awkwardly do the splits with their front legs!

Although giraffes are very sociable, gentle animals, males will sometimes engage in powerful displays of dominance by battling each other with their long necks! This is called ‘necking’. If you ever saw the giraffe fight on the BBC David Attenborough series of “Africa”, you’ll know how brutal this can be.

These giraffe art prints really capture the comical side we associate with these long legged creatures! Giraffes often look like they’re amused by something, and those long eye lashes give the impression that they’ve made a special effort to look their best. Their trademark ‘sideways chew’ gives them that extra comic appeal. If you're looking for a gift to put a smile on someone's face, this could be the perfect choice!
