i'm upset no one thinks a giraffe can headbutt a panda

Here's what national geographic has to say:

Yes they can and the panda loses every time.

It proves my point.. that yes.. actually.. wait I forgot the question.

I saw it like a cartoon. You know in the Lion King when they're all singing and the giraffes are swinging their necks around? And suddenly BAM, Panda!

A panda could headbutt a giraffe, but the giraffe might not even notice. Or it might slip over like it was on rollerskates.
