The GIRAFFE is the tallest animal at up to 19 feet — tall enough to look into a second-floor window! Its neck alone is 6 feet long, but it has the same number of neck bones as you — just 7, but each one is about 10 inches long! The BLUE WHALE is the heaviest animal at 200 tons. The AFRICAN ELEPHANT is the heaviest land animal at 14,000 pounds. The SALTWATER CROCODILE is the largest reptile at 23 feet. The OSTRICH is the biggest bird, standing 9 feet tall!
