 How
long is a giraffe’s tongue?
 A
giraffe’s
tongue is about 18 inches long. It is a dark color on the
end supposedly to keep it from getting sunburned when the giraffe wraps it
around a tree branch to strip the leaves off for food. The
giraffes also tend to slobber
a lot but then they do need extra moisture to keep food moving for such a long
distance.
