Giraffe pronghorn (SciiFii)

The giraffe pronghorn (Giraffoantila megacollum), also known as the tall-necked pronghorn, the long-necked pronghorn, the false giraffe, and the American giraffe, is a species of pronghorn that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the open woodlands, grasslands, shrublands, and scrublands across North America to help boost biodiversity. The giraffe pronghorn's chief distinguishing characteristics are its extremely long neck and legs, its ossicone-like horns, and its distinctive coat patterns. The giraffe pronghorn is the largest member of the pronghorn family, growing on average of about 5.7 meters (18.7 feet) tall, with males taller than females. The main food source of the giraffe pronghorn includes leaves, fruits, and flowers of woody plants, including many tree species which they browse at heights most other herbivores cannot reach, filling the similar ecological niche to the true giraffes (Giraffa). Giraffe pronghorns may be preyed on by American lions, American tigers, jaguars, spotted hyenas, large predatory bears, wolves, dire wolves, dholes, Californian wild dogs, entelodonts, and hyaenodonts. Giraffe pronghorns live in herds of related females and their offspring, or bachelor herds of unrelated adult males, but are gregarious and may gather in large aggregations. Males establish social hierarchies through "necking", which are combat bouts where the neck is used as a weapon. Dominant males gain mating access to females, which bear the sole responsibility for raising the young. The conservation status of the giraffe pronghorn is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts and the giraffe pronghorn's wide range.
