1. Northern Giraffe ( Giraffa camelopardalis) The giraffe is one of the tallest animals that don't sleep much. They only dedicate around 2 hours per day to sleep, but only in sessions of about 10 minutes at a time distributed throughout the day. The reason for this is their need to protect themselves from predators.
Don’t Sleep, There Are Snakes, where former Bible translator Daniel Everett tells about his life and language work among the Pirahá people in the Amazonian jungle. A few observations about the Pirahá culture and language will lead to what I really want to explore with you: why Mr. Everett, the missionary Bible translator, lost his faith in God.

Rich account of fieldwork among a tribe of hunter-gatherers in Brazil. In 1977, the author was a 27-year-old Christian missionary determined to convert the Pirahã, a group of 300 living along the Maici River in the Amazon rainforest.
Don’t Sleep There Are Snakes is a phrase never actually used in the show, and it’s the book by Daniel Everett of the same title that reveals precisely why the Pirahã (roughly pronounced ‘PEE-ra-ha’) people of the Amazon rainforest even have such a saying in their vocabulary.
