Tom,

Obviously the giraffe swallowed a couple of siderites before it was demised
by the Chixculob (or alike) tsumani.
This exotic example therefore is to learn us one more feature: some 65 MY
ago (and perhaps still now ?), giraffes did not digest very readily
siderites....A valuable observation for Science...

Cheers,

Zelimir
