My giraffe hide is slightly thicker than my bison hide, but similar in the flexibility.

I shot my first giraffe with a 375 and 300 gr bullets at about 50 yards with a lung shot. I shot my second with a 300 win and 200 gr accubonds at maybe 80-120 yards on the follow up shots. It was supposed to be a neck shot but didn’t drop like supposed to. It was the lung shot that killed it.
My thoughts follow: Giraffe is a very large animal. Likely the largest of the common plains game species. The torso of a Giraffe bull is larger, wider than a Cape Buffalo. The hide of a Giraffe is tough and thick. The bulls establish dominance by bashing those two short horns on their heads into one another's shoulders.
