Meet the 'pumped giraffe' that is thriving on the internet

It really seems that the fever of the academies is invading the animal world. Calm down there! Even if it seems, that is not what is happening. The animals are not doing bodybuilding or not consuming protein supplements. However, if we propose a “walk of fame” for strong, muscular animals, we would have one more “celebrity” to honor.

Exactly, after the kangaroo Roger, who was famous for his lean and muscular body (could even star in a "CanguRocky" as "Sylvester Cangullone"), the ball of the day is a nameless giraffe, which was photographed by a tourist. South Africa. The situation of the “bombed giraffe” has an explanation, but it apparently scared the visitors of the Pongola Reserve (as we found a Hollywood role for the kangaroo, how about if this “Girafwenegger” was the next “Giraferminador”). Future"?).

The giraffe apparently stayed that way for the territorial and dominant dispute characteristic of the species. According to information from the Giraffe Preservation Foundation, these animals have long necks to feed, remain alert and dispute power with other specimens of the same species. And with these disputes the muscular effort makes the tissue more prominent, leaving the giraffes "saradonas".

To fight, giraffes poke their necks against each other. Even with structures conditioned to withstand such a situation, such a fight can cause fractures, render some animals unconscious or, in some cases more extreme, even lead to death. However, the victors gain territorial power and dominance and are physically strengthened for the next battles.

Neck fights can make some giraffes unconscious or, in rarer cases, cause death

Josh Guyan, the tourist responsible for the image of the muscular giraffe, told Mail Online that when he realized the difference between the animal's neck and the others, he decided to photograph it. “It's amazing! I've taken a lot of pictures of giraffes, but it's the first time I've seen one like this (...) She's extremely muscular. He must have faced many struggles throughout his life, ”he said.
