A giraffe’s remarkably long neck allows them to reach foliage that is otherwise untouched. Giraffes eat a lot too; up to as much as 66 pounds a day.
An example would be in Florida, the last reefs finish around Miami even though specific coral species can be located in the Coralinas. It is also true in Australia, as the last reefs are just north of Fraser Island while a few scattered species can be located in South Sydney. Coral reefs progress in shallow, warm water, normally near land, and mainly in the tropics; coral prefer temperatures between 70 and 85 ° F (21 - 30 °C). There are coral reefs off the eastern coast of Africa, off the southern coast of India, in the Red Sea, and off the coasts of northeast and northwest Australia and on to Polynesia.
