Jellyfish

Jellyfish are animals of the phylum Cnidaria. They are a monophyletic clade, the
Medusozoa. Jellyfish are not really fish. They are invertebrate animals. This means that unlike
fish or people, they have no backbones. In fact, they have no bones at all.

Jellyfish have stomachs and mouths, but no heads. They have nervous systems for
sensing the world around them, but no brains. They are made almost entirely of water, which is
why you can look through them. Some jellyfish can glow in darkness by making their own light.
The light is made by a chemical reaction inside the jellyfish. Scientists believe jellyfish glow for
several reasons. For example, they may glow to scare away predators or to attract animals they
like to eat.

Most jellyfish live in salt water, apart from a few types that live in fresh water. Jellyfish
are found in oceans and seas all over the world. They live in warm, tropical seas and in icy
waters near the North and South poles.

Girraffes

Giraffes are the endemic mammal of Africa. They are the tallest living animal on earth.
Giraffes were also known as camelopardalis by the Roman, which literally means spotted camel.
Their scientific name is Girrafa camelopardalis. Its height can reach 4.8 to 5.5 meters and its
weight about 1360 pounds. Giraffe has a unique characteristic. They have a very long neck and
two small horns on its head. Giraffes have big brown eyes and protected by thick and long
eyebrows.
Their body is covered with a unique pattern that is attached by brown spots all over their
body. Just like camels, giraffes can survive without drinking for long time because giraffes can
rely on the water contained in leaves they eat. Giraffes are very selective in choosing food. They
always eat young leaves that grow in the tree tops. Their tongues are shaped like a knife help
them to cut branches which are very hard.
Giraffes have a keen sense of smell and hearing to help them recognize the danger
quickly and gallop away. If they are being threatened, they can put up a decent fight by using
their legs or head to kick and blow like a sledge hammer.
Female giraffes can start pregnant at the age of five years, with a gestation period of 15
months. Commonly female giraffe bear one baby, but sometimes two babies at once. Giraffes
bear its baby with a standing position. When the baby is about to be born, they just drop it to the
ground from a 1.5 meter of height. Baby giraffe can stand with about 20 minutes since being
born, and begin breastfeeding within an hour of birth.
