While it is not impossible for giraffes to swim, we speculate that they would perform poorly compared to other mammals and are hence likely to avoid swimming if possible.


That's some awesome computer-finding... wish I could see it for real though #ni-1

Valuable information. Next time I'm being chased by a vicious Giraffe I'll run for the nearest lake instead of climbing a tree. Big mistake! Laughing

Get thee to a zoo! I'm sure you will be able to catch sight of some giraffes not-swimming. Razz
