Twin births are rare for giraffes. Out of 8,600 normal births worldwide, there are only 32 twin births. After pregnancies of about 15 months, giraffes are born by dropping 6 or 7 feet out of the mothers womb with the mother standing up. they are usually able to stand and nurse within 30 minutes after birth.
