Gestation. Giraffes are pregnant for a period between 14 and 15 months, or 453 to 464 days, one of longest gestation periods in the animal kingdom. Giraffes usually give birth to one offspring at a time, although twins are born occasionally. Because the gestation period is so long, the giraffe won't give birth to another baby for 16 months or more.
Last year, a Masai giraffe at the Los Angeles Zoo died shortly after a stillborn calf was removed. Masai giraffes typically live into their late teens to early 20s. Females can give birth as young as 4 and gestation lasts, on average, about 15 months.
