A 7
B 12
C 24
Fact: A giraffe’s neck is on average 6 feet long, and it’s supported by bones called cervical vertebrae. Just like humans, giraffes have only seven vertebrae to support their heads. How do so few bones support such a long neck? An individual bone in the giraffe’s neck can be as long as 10 inches!
