长颈鹿体重约1000千克,但是以它的体型来说,却拥有着异常纤细的腿骨,这就意味着长颈鹿的腿骨处于高强度的机械承受力下。英国伦敦皇家兽医学院的科学家通过解剖学研究,揭开了长颈鹿四肢细长但却非常强壮的秘密。研究团队从一只圈养死去的长颈鹿腿上测得数据。他们将长颈鹿的肢体固定在钢架中,用质量为250千克的重量来模拟承担在长颈鹿 The giraffe weighs about 1,000 kilos, but with its size, it possesses an unusually thin leg, which means that the giraffe's leg bones are under high mechanical strength. Scientists at the Royal College of Veterinary Medicine in London, England, have uncovered the slender but very strong secrets of the giraffe's limbs through anatomical research. The team measured data from a captive giraffe leg in captivity. They fixed the giraffe's limbs in a steel frame and mimicked the weight of a giraffe
