A giraffe has two gaits: walking and galloping. When walking the right legs move together and the left legs together. When galloping, the giraffe uses its front legs together and its back legs together. The walk has an ambling rhythm with the neck working in synchronicity to keep the body in balance.
Giraffes have different features that help them stay safe from predators. For one thing, they are fast, tall, and very strong. This means that it does not have many enemies. The major predators of the giraffe are hyenas, Nile crocodiles, and lions. With the help of its speed, a giraffe is able to get away from such predators. A giraffe can run close to 30 mph and this makes it easier to escape its enemies. However, the giraffe can only keep up with this speed for a short distance.
