Despite the camouflaging stains in the fur, giraffes don't always remain undiscovered by carnivores. But they know how to defend themselves by kicking firmly with their front hooves. They do this above all when they want to protect their young, because adult animals are usually rarely attacked. Who has the opportunity to look at giraffes from the proximity, female animals can be easily distinguished from the male ones. They are slightly smaller and have thin horns with small tufts of fur. Giraffe-bulls against it have thick horns, that are hairless at the top, against it.
