<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">camelopard</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I know that camelopard can be written as giraffe)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for giraffe that I've seen before include "A long-legged creature" , "Tallest extant quadruped" , "Animal once known as a camelopard" , "Sixteen, mostly neck" , "Long - necked animal" .)
