Are giraffes actually herbivores?

Giraffes have an unusual dietary habit to enable them to grow to their full potential height. Giraffes eat mostly leaves and rarely grass, but from time to time they chew on bones from carcasses. Without this eating habit, they would not have enough calcium or phosphorus needed to grow well.
