Perception on being a Mother and killing nature by taking all of its resources fortion of The Giraffe Tale Perception on being a mother and by taking all of its resources fortion of The Giraffe Tale The mother in the story is a wild animal who has taken all of the resources needed to feed herself and her offspring. She has not only taken all that she needs, but also prevents other animals from doing the same. This makes her seem very selfish as she deprives them of food they need and keeps them from being able to live without taking food away from others.
