Giraffes' habitat They live in eastern Africa; they live in the savannah. Find them somewhere else where they like to be next to trees to get food from far-reaching places. They like to be in open woodlands, especially in places with trees or wood. It's really beautiful to go and look at animals, but giraffas are really interesting. Feeding giraffes is fun but kind of risky because they might pick up the food and the person feeding them since they are very strong.
