I was watching a random animal documentary on Netflix and came across this vicious tidbit. What we think we know of giraffes as gentle creatures is so incredibly wrong. They are actually highly territorial beasts with enough power in their forelegs to bludgeon a lion (or human) to death! I was skeptical at first so of course I rushed to the Youtube to see if I could see any vids of them in action. Most were cheesy family videos from African Lion Safari type parks with the long-necked buddies leaning into car windows for a snack, but I did find these choice two.
The lesson? Do not fuck with giraffes (or any wild animal for that matter) or you will FEEL THEIR WRATH!
