What are Giraffes' enemies?

Have you ever wondered an interesting animal facts question: What are Giraffes' enemies? Let’s see how

Giraffes are strict herbivores that eat seedpods, flowers, leaves and fruit. While their size and ability to see predators at great distances help them to avoid most predators, lions, hyenas, leopards and crocodiles occasionally catch and eat giraffes.

The giraffe is mainly found in Africa, and in many African cultures the tail of the giraffe is used to make good-luck bracelets. The tail may also be used to make thread, which is used for sewing and stringing beads. This means the giraffe is sometimes killed solely for its tail. The giraffe's survival is threatened not only by poachers, but also by the continued destruction of its habitats. Agricultural activities and the construction of buildings and roads has led to the cutting down of acacia trees, the leaves of which are the main diet of the giraffe. If left to grow and flourish in its natural habitat, a giraffe can live for up to 25 years.
