Hi there,
 Giraffes rarely make noises with their mouth, but when they do, 
they snort or moo.
 Some interesing facts about giraffes are that they have 7 bones 
in their neck, just like humans!  You can tell a male from a female
giraffe by the horns on their head, a male giraffe has no hair on 
his horns as a result of neck wrestling.
 A giraffe's tongue can be up to 22 inches long.
           Go to the following web sites for more giraffe info
