Hello Giraffes

DID YOU KNOW?

 

Our new Giraffes - Jengo, Kibibi and Kiara have some interesting facts about themselves to share with you. . . 

 

We know that giraffes mainly feed on acacia trees, but did you know that they use their long tongues to reach past the thorns to pick off the leaves behind?

 

Our giraffes are a Reticulated Giraffe.  What makes them special is their distinguished 'net-like' pattern of their coat.

 

 

Giraffe's habitat is the dry savannahs, in sub-Saharan Africa.  Our giraffes can be found in Kenya, Ethiopia ad Somalia.  Can you find these countries in Africa?
