Giraffe

Giraffes are the world's tallest mammals, thanks to their towering legs and long necks. A giraffe's legs alone are taller than many humans—about 6 feet. These long legs allow giraffes to run as fast as 35 miles an hour over short distances and cruise comfortably at 10 miles an hour over longer distances.

Description
The Giraffe is the tallest living animal and instantly recognizable by its exceptionally long neck. Giraffes live in the savanna and open woodland, habitats where the available food varies throughout the year. Averting 17ft. (5.3m) tall, the giraffe can pursue the surrounding terrain and see any threats well before they are in range of attacking. An animal of average speed and health, the Giraffe is supreme scout because its lack of any special abilities makes it resource cost low. Fear not though, the sight radius on the Giraffe more than makes up for any of its shortcomings.
