It will also enhance the stronger males dominance from an earlier age.

During necking, the giraffes swing their necks and use their ossicones (the bony protrusions on their heads) to strike their opponent's body. The aim is not to harm the other giraffe but to display dominance. They often target the neck and shoulders of their opponent. Giraffes have thick skin and strong muscles in these areas that help protect them during these interactions.🦒 #wildlife #thisisafrica #traveladdict #LiveYourWild #Africansafari #experienceafricawithus #uniqueexperiences #latestsig
