    I always assumed the lighter color of a giraffe was the default or background color and the spots were abnormally dark. This is throwing me off because the spotless one is the same color as the spots would be.

      Maybe it’s not spotless, but rather all spot!

    They are asking the public (internet) to name it. I guarantee it will either be Spot or Giraffey McGiraffeface.

    I’m cool with either.

      Looks like they were smart and made it fixed multiple choice instead of leaving suggestions open to the public.

    Neck/Body ratio is really funny. Looks like something I would draw trying to make a deer.

      Giraffe are so weird, the more I look at them the less real they look to me.

      It just looks like a normal animal but with completely fucked up ratio.

      Imagine trying to draw a giraffe to someone who don’t know they exist. They would probably just assume that you suck at drawing.
