Hands would be a lot less evolutionarily useful if they couldn’t reach your mouth.
They still could, you would just need to bend your head down to reach em
I bet they still couldn’t reach. Giraffes have the same number of vertebrae in their necks as other mammals. This makes their necks very stiff, compared to their lengths. For reference, look up giraffes drinking.
What in the fresh hell is this? 💀
That’s Derpleton from Centaurworld. Is a weird, but good show. Would recommend.
I felt ridiculous watching it but it was so good. It’s the sort of show I plan to pull out to be the fun aunt alongside Avatar. I didn’t expect for it to make me cry but it did
Centaur World is a story about a war horse that accidentally falls into Centaur World full of happy cartoon centaurs that happen to speak horse or whatever.
They speak English. Horse is magicked with the ability to speak by going to CW
Centaur World is incredible. Best kids show I’ve seen as an adult. They need your viewership to make more crazy stuff.
Came here to post this
Officially the first post I really laughed on lemmy! The future seems bright! 🤣
bro how did I get sensory overload from a black and white image
Bloody One Piece.
That’s why I read this shit with fan colorings. I think my brain would literally not be able to process what’s going on without it
wat
Neither. The neck is the long part, and do horse-based centaurs have horse necks?
Giraffe centaurs would be underwhelming.
Fuck, this really opened my eyes. You ruined giraffe centaurs for me. D:
But in a centaur, the human torso is placed where the horse neck would be. If it was the torso that was replaced they would look more like satyrs.
But in a centaur, the human torso is placed where the horse neck would be.
Yes, with a perfectly normal human torso. Put a human torso in the same spot and…
BOOOORRRING!! 🤣
lol
The torso is a tricky concept, there’s no good anatomical definition that makes sense. Is the pelvis included? The whole axial skeleton? Everyone knows the general idea of where the torso is, but it’s hard to define with precision.
The right one. A centaur is a horse with a human torso replacing the horse’s neck & head. So it’s one of those humans with the long torso, you know the type.
@ObviouslyNotBanana maybe the first one
I say the left but double the length of the arms.
Have some Lenny gold
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Now do giraffe fauns. At least giraffe centaurs have those counterbalancing rear legs, giraffe fauns would need to be half as wide as they are tall to have abs strong enough to keep themselves upright. And with those tiny spindly legs they have, even if they do leg day religiously and bulk them up they’ll still be teetering about on two little hooves.
bonus question: where’s the nipples?
Like it or not, this is peak male performance
the left one would look sick with some shades
Why not scale up the size of the human so it fits with both solutions?
It’s funnier this way?
I think a huge human torso on top of a giraffe could also look funny enough
Centaurs don’t have horse necks so neither is right. It would be the body of a giraffe with a human torso starting where the neck would start
But is the human torso going to be hella long like the example on the right? That’s not a neck. That’s a long abdomen.
Nah, just like a normal centaur but with long spindly giraffe legs
