Do giraffes get sore throats?

Asked by platypusninjaa (18points) December 25th, 2010

This is actually a really random question to ask, but I was just thinking about giraffes and I wondered how it would feel for a giraffe to get a sore throat. Can they even get one in the first place?

Yes, and you should see the size of the swab they have to use to test for strep. ~

Is Pete the name of the giraffe?

LOL @Trillian and @cprevite!

I feel like I have a giraffe-sized sore throat at the moment. I guess I never really got over that cold…

@ChocolateReigns: My wife’s in the same boat. She’s been relapsing since November. Ugh. Hope you feel better.

@cprevite Yeah I hope so too, and I hope she feels better! I want to be able to go to church and actually participate in our second Christmas Day tomorrow.

I’m sure a giraffe gets sore throats just like dogs etc. do. But, can you comprehend what being a whale with diarrhea would be like!

@BoBo1946 Probably just another day for the whale. A nearby fishing boat however…..
