Same thing with giraffes.
It's a huge misconception of unrealistic biomechanics.
That giraffe is drinking.
When they're not intentionally bending down to reach something low down like a water hole, they look like this:
This is vertical propaganda.
Look I can keep posting photos I've taken of giraffes all day. All you have to say is "please post more giraffe pics"
Please post more giraffe pics
Nice deep fake! You can't trick me!
Are you talking about puking or just how they hold themselves? Because if it’s the later, have you ever been to a zoo? They clearly walk around with their necks held at like a 60-45 degree angle up from their spine. We can look up pictures of this in modern day too.
Giraffes literally have a rubber-like band tht keeps their head vertical at rest.
So yes, they do.
Let me guess, next you're gonna claim the Egyptians already invented rubber bands to keep their brachiosaurs upright? Not falling for it.
Almost. They actually stole it from the Aliens that they enslaved to build the pyramids.
