1. The giraffes with the longer necks were able to reach the higher trees
2. The giraffes with the shorter necks couldn’t reach the higher trees and therefore as a result had to share the lower trees for food
3. The giraffes with the shorter necks died and the giraffes with the longer necks reproduced making the population have mostly giraffes with longer necks
