               Giraffes are fascinating creatures that are known   recognise their family members from far away
               for their long necks, which can measure up to six

               called ‘towers’ and exhibit social behaviour. They
               communicate with each other through a variety
               of sounds, including snorts, grunts, and moans,
               and they also use body language to convey their
               feelings. Unfortunately, giraffes are currently facing
               numerous threats, including habitat loss, poaching,   3
               and climate change, which has led to a decline
               in their populations. Conservation efforts are   A)  Giraffes’ adaptation to diverse African habitats,
