(The giraffe-producing nations). My latest herd is here. http://www.onemilliongiraffes.com/?id=25185 (Bringing my current total to 243.)

Lies, Damned Lies and Statistical Giraffes:

After looking more closely at the statistics, I feel better. Some people are drawing basically bunches of'h's on graph paper and calling them giraffes, so they can get thousands on a single sheet of paper in less time than it took me to make the one felt giraffe. So while Israel is currently in 6th place that's because one person made 21,914 (all other Israeli contributors made an additional 86). Switzerland in second place has 38,835 made by one person and only 56 not made by her by other Swiss folk. The United Kingdom is first, but it's more spread out- 23,069 made by one person, while 16,693 were made by other people in the UK.

I refuse to use giraffe paper to make h's with a little line off to the left so you can say it's got a head. That's so boring.

links to many wonderful giraffes. )
