Giraffe Behavior - Hormones in Nature This might appear in general as a rather dull photograph, but bear with me. <br /> <br /> This is photo 1 out of 3. It is an attempt to show how Giraffe bulls with raging hormones interact. Here it is evident that something is about to happen. In general appearance, it seems as these bulls are trying to be the &quot;tallest&quot; standing.
