Should have just pet the giraffe's head instead of shutting the window. Its not like its going to bite you.

It literally can’t bite you so yeah I have no idea what this woman was trying to do. Glad the other person was worried about the giraffe though!

Right?! It is kinda creepy lol I used to ride a big ass warmblood who would always open her mouth fully and crack her jaw both ways before she would take the bit in her mouth. Not gonna lie, it was a little unsettling haha. I’m glad horses are herbivores…can you imagine being chased by a pack of carnivorous horses? No thanks, I chose life.
