    Is a beautiful and graceful animal!

    Tita1 is right.


    I'll add, the male weighs around 2,600 pounds. 17 feet tall, although a male has been recorded at 20 feet. This is the  tallest land animal. There are 9 different subspecies. They are related to deer and cattle.


    They can not swim.

    I didn't know that they couldn't swim, that's what I love about this site, you learn something new everyday. Thank you Daisy.

    There was something else, I knew about them but couldn't find it. Its about equilibrium. They are the only animal the can lower and raise their head (17 ft)without passing out. cool.
    Thanks.

    Daisy!
