One resting giraffe or a group under a tree?
Choose large patches or many smaller repeated markings.
Folded legs
A resting giraffe has a long neck, folded legs and large outlined patches against a plain background. Choose it to preserve spaces between patches.

Four beside a tree
Three smaller giraffes stand beside a taller one under a broad tree. Branches, grass and many small patches make a longer task.

Print the original line drawing linked below. The numbered areas match the color key and steps; use the colored example as a starting point, then choose your own colors if you prefer.
Digital coloring example
- 1. Golden coat
- 2. Brown patches and tufts
- 3. Peach inner ears
- Color the giraffe's base coat pale golden yellow, including muzzle, horn stems, legs and thin tail, while reserving existing patches and inner ears.
- Color every original patch, mane tuft, both horn-top tufts, tail tuft and outlined hoof ends brown.
- Color both inner-ear areas peach. Keep eye whites and background white.
Golden paths should separate the brown patches, including on folded legs. Add no extra spots; the original outlines are enough.

For less background detail, choose the front-facing giraffe or the resting figure on a plain background. The four-giraffe group and the three giraffes by the waterhole have more small patches and scenery to color.
Try it together
Find the ears, the two short projections on the head and the tuft at the end of the tail. Compare the standing, walking and drinking poses, then choose colors for the patches and the surrounding plants.
