Giraffes are so cool, although I was watching a nature show the other day and it had a clip of 2 giraffes fighting, and I have to admit that was one of the dorkiest fights I've ever seen π
I noticed this post is 6 years old and the linked article does not mention any specifics about what the zoo is doing wrong. Was this before or after the habitat expansion? Has there been any other changes in the past few years that raise concern?
US big game hunters pay $20,000 to shoot and kill π¦ in Africa and it is something I cannot fathom. It is majority white wealthy men and their grotesque wives who murder these miraculous animals.

Dating myself: in π¨π¦ during the 1960s, one of my favourite πΊ programs was βThe Gentle Giantβ. One character was Jerome the giraffe (not a live one though). Had Jerome been a live giraffe, I wonder whether he could still be alive. What is a giraffeβs life expectancy? π€
