The giraffe has the highest blood pressure of any animal. The giraffe has an extremely high blood pressure (280/180 mm Hg) which is twice that found in humans. Additionally, the heart beats up to 170 times per minute double that of humans.

The giraffe is a big-hearted animal. On the average, the mass of a giraffe's heart is about 40 kg. The giraffe needs a big heart with very thick muscular walls to pump sufficient blood a long distance, up the length of the neck to the brain( more work against the gravity). As a result, the giraffe has the highest blood pressure of any animal.
