Human: I just bought this giraffe and I was wondering what sort of bedding they need? Assistant: 
Giraffes are generally comfortable in greens and browns, and they prefer to lie down on soft grass. They are very agile and alert animals and need a large, open space to move around. Their environment should be well ventilated and protected from overheating. Giraffes require very little food, as they get most of the nutrients they need from the leaves they eat. They have several salt and mineral licks, which they regularly drink from. As they often travel in herds, giraffes prefer quiet, low-disturbance surroundings. In captivity, they are typically kept in spacious habitats with high roofs, so they can stand with their necks fully extended. Giraffes are very docile and gregarious animals, so they are well suited to in-group animal care at zoos, wildlife parks and wildlife conservation groups.
