| Male giraffes are around 16–18 feet tall at the horn tips, and weigh 1700–4200 lb. Females are one to 2 feet shorter and weigh several hundred pounds less than males. Both sexes have horns, although the horns of a female are smaller. Giraffes have spots covering their entire bodies, except their underbellies, with each giraffe having a unique pattern of spots. |
