Zelimir,

and nowadays giraffes have adapted better to digest siderites (which they
have to do, to keep the iron in the knobs of their antennas fresh).
That's the reason, why we find substantially less irons in Africa than in
Australia.

Tom,

Obviously the giraffe swallowed a couple of siderites before it was demised
by the Chixculob (or alike) tsumani.
This exotic example therefore is to learn us one more feature: some 65 MY
ago (and perhaps still now ?), giraffes did not digest very readily
siderites....A valuable observation for Science...

Cheers,

Zelimir
