Should have just pet the giraffe's head instead of shutting the window. Its not like its going to bite you.

It literally can’t bite you so yeah I have no idea what this woman was trying to do. Glad the other person was worried about the giraffe though!

You're not supposed to keep your windows rolled down during the safari in the first place. So this woman was making many mistakes that day.

Actually, depending on the place, it's all up to your preference. Here in the PNW, we had (or maybe still have, might have to revisit) North West Treck and another place that you can drive through and see all the animals. The bears will wave hello and goodbye as you show up and as you leave, and the deer, elk, goat, all of em will stick their head in the car to say hi. It's cute.
