Long-necked giraffes could reach the food on the trees‚ while the short-necked giraffes couldn’t. Since long necks helped the giraffes eat‚ short-necked giraffes died off from hunger. Because of this long-necks became a dominant trait in giraffes. This is what Charles Darwin would later call natural selection. <br> <br>Charles Darwin also showed how new species were

    selection‚ Mivart uses giraffes‚ insects that mimic other things in nature‚ fish‚ kangaroos‚ and whales as examples‚ which I will summarize below. Mivart’s first example is the giraffe. Darwin’s theory of natural selection implies that in times of drought‚ giraffes with longer necks would be able to reach the leaves of trees and gain nutrients from them‚ and thus would be able to survive and pass this long-necked trait onto their offspring.

The giraffes offspring would then inherit it’s long neck. Darwin was soon to invalidate this theory by stating that a giraffe with a longer neck would be able to reach the food which is high up. He also said that a giraffe would have the capability to find enough food
