 When I first saw a giraffe at the zoo I was three years old and I I must have just loved the long necks and long legs When I was 23 I went to a place in Africa where I could study giraffe and spent a year there watching them and Reading down what they were doing back then people didn't expect women to do things like that So I had to pretend I was a man. So I just said I was a rather than an I was the first person in the world to know how long the digestive tract of the giraffe was Maybe 150 feet of intestine was coming from the giraffe. This was a bit of information that no one had ever had before If I could do it so many years ago you can do it too My name is Anne Innes Dagg and I'm a zoologist
