African Myths

Africa is home to some of the largest, strangest, and more fearsome creatures on Earth. For centuries, humans have tried to make sense of them. Why does the zebra have a striped coat? What's the purpose of the giraffe's long neck? How did crocodiles get their protective armor? Our ancient ancestors tried to find explanations through stories. Now, modern science brings us the answers--and it turns out the truth is stranger than fiction.
