Madagascar by Kirsten Bruening
This beautiful giraffe we could admire during a trip to the “Cologne Zoo”. Giraffes with a weight of 800 kg reach a speed of around 60 km / h. Giraffes are very famous since the movie Madagascar. Who did not enchant Melman with his clumsiness? By the way, giraffes have a blue tongue because the color protects them from the sun.
