Their saliva has antibacterial properties also.To collect leaves, the giraffe wraps its long tongue around a branch to strip off the leaves. The teeth are spaced like combs which help separate the leaves from the thorns.

They can actually go without water for a longer period of time than a camel can.

We don't use inches in South Africa, so was unsure of this answer

Knodel58, 508 mm is not even close to 60 cm in any measurements system ,except a country mile . It is close to 51cm. In real money that’s just under 4 inches difference to the original 20 inches or 20 % . Should we now refer to you as Knodel71?

A metric equivalent in the multiple choice would be great. I have no idea what an inch is.

Chezikeets, human saliva also has antibacterial properties, I think its quite a common trait in cross species
