How giraffes got their long neck.
Back in the old days baby giraffes were born with short necks.
One day a baby giraffe was learning how to walk. Suddenly one baby giraffe, stumbled and fell into a big hole.
Later that day, a friendly monkey came along. He heard the baby giraffe crying and offered to help it get out of the hole.The monkey grabbed the giraffe by the head and was trying to pull the giraffe out from the hole. But the giraffe was too heavy! The more that the monkey pulled, the longer the giraffe’s neck was stretching.
By the time the monkey had pulled the giraffe out of the hole, it’s neck was half the length of it’s body.
And that's how the giraffe got its long neck.
