Biggest Animal That Is Bigger Than Elephant
Elephants are mammals of the family Elephantidae and the largest existing land animals. Three species are currently recognised: the African bush elephant, the African forest elephant, and the Asian elephant. Elephantidae is the only surviving family of the order Proboscidea; extinct members include the mastodons.
The giraffe is an African artiodactyl mammal, the tallest living terrestrial animal and the largest ruminant. It is traditionally considered to be one species, Giraffa camelopardalis, with nine subspecies.
An adult male giraffe (Giraffa camelopardalis) typically measures between 4.6 m and 5.5 m (15–18 ft) tall. The tallest giraffe ever was a Masai bull (G. c. tippelskirchi ) named George, who stood 5.8 m (19 ft) at the age of nine.
TANZANIA – The World’s biggest Giraffe was caught on camera. It is hard to believe that, It is world’s biggest animal. It is alive and roaming around Tanzania.
Giraffes are the tallest land mammals on the planets, but this giraffe – nicknamed Shackie – is the biggest of the tallest.
The average mass for an adult male giraffe is 1,200 kilograms (2,600 lb) while the average mass for an adult female is 2,600 pounds. It is approximately 14 ft to 17 ft tall, although the tallest male recorded stood almost 20 ft.
Shackie, a female, beats all those physical attributes – by a long neck.  Shackie is 22 ft., tall and weighs 5,100 pounds. By comparison the average adult elephant weights 4.6 tons – about twice as much as Shackie.
But Shackie is taller and run faster. The average giraffe runs about 35 mph, but Shackie has been clocked at about 52 mph, which is amazing considering she’s so big.
Unfortunately, there are some giraffe hunters out there trying to bag Shackie.  “She’s a big target and everyone wants a piece of her,” said Tanzania wildlife expert, Professor Susan Begley of Mzumbe University.  “We are trying to do everything we can to protect Shackie, but we are still very concerned.
Many countries are trying to make a deal with Tanzania to bring the animal to their zoos. Sweden has the inside track on getting Shackie for the Kolmarden Zoo in Stockholm. Swedish supermodel, Anna Hofverberg, was sent to Tanzania to represent the country and she made quite an impression on the Tanzanian citizens. “She’s the most beautiful woman we have ever seen,” said Jakaya Kikwete, President of Tanzania. “She also knows a lot about giraffes. She made a compelling case for the Swedish zoo.”
Unfortunately, the United States is NOT in the running to get Shackie. “We thought Paris Hilton would be a good choice as an ambassador to get Shackie for the San Diego Zoo, but we made a mistake,” said San Diego Zookeeper, Greg Hayes. Apparently, Paris Hilton didn’t know the difference between giraffes and elephants. “They’re both African animals. How was I supposed to know the difference?” said Hilton. Either way, Shackie lives and is… The World’s biggest animal

STRANGE BEING

Ever heard about the guy with 3 legs, 4 feet, 16 toes and 2 sets of functioning male genitals? opera.com Mar 23, 2020 2:14 AM A guy named Francesco Lentini had three legs, four feet, sixteen toes, and two sets of functioning male genitals. He worked for the circus and lived the age of 78. Francesco Lentini was born in 1889 in Sirocusa Italy. He was one of twelve children; technically, 12 and a half children as Frank was born with a parasitic twin attached to his body. The partially-absorbed twin has a leg and genitals attached to Frank’s spine. Thus, in total, he had three legs, four feet, sixteen toes and two sets of functioning male genitals. To complicate his life further, all of Frank’s legs were of different lengths. At first, his parents refused to acknowledge him so Frank was raised by his aunt who, meaning well, enrolled him in a home for disabled children. While there, the young Lentini, saw children worse off than he. While he learned to walk, run, jump and ...

Man beat up his wife, inserted hand in her private part to remove fetus for refusing abortion. Wonders will never seize to reign. I wonder why some people are so mean. Some people have blunt thinking horizons. How can a husband take laws into his own hands to beat up his wife just because of pregnancy. Babies are gifts from God and are not artificially acquired. If babies are artificially acquired, people who are unable to give birth to babies would have acquired theirs. You can now see the irony of life. Some people have been crying all day to get a child anyhow but cannot get. Some people married for years and have suffered to have at least a child of their own but could not get. So many marriages broke down due to the woman inability to conceive and produce babies. Most or some of the domestic violence you hear sometimes may arise as a result of mothers-in-law interference due to inability of daughters - in-law to conceive and give them grandchildren. They become angry with their...
