A newly described species of ancient giraffoid had a thick helmet designed for fierce. How the giraffe got its neck: For years, there has been scant fossil evidence showing how the giraffe evolved to have such an admirably long neck. Examination of fossil cervical vertebrae is necessary for a comprehensive understanding of the evolution of the giraffe neck, and how the cervicals lengthen. Several evolutionary theories have been proposed to explain the adaptation of the long giraffe neck; A new study of fossils suggests that the giraffe’s defining feature may have started evolving long before modern giraffes came on the scene. ‘unicorn’ fossil could shed light on puzzle. We review here the literature and conclude that the proximate ancestors of modern giraffes probably evolved in southern central europe.
