Honolulu, Hawaii, USA

Here are two reticulated giraffes. (Reticulate: 'resembling a net or network.') Giraffes are herd animals, so zoos will always have more than one, typically at least one male and several females. Fortunately, the males are happy to coexist in the same range, which is a real advantage for zoo keepers. How can such skinny legs support all that weight? [2011]
