They are such improbable looking creatures

I found it funny that the post with the video said they waited “impatiently.” How can you tell if a giraffe is impatient? They looked pretty serene to me, but, being ungulates, maybe they were farting up that cave and wanted to get out of there.

Aww, and they all have Pepa Pig voices in my head.

At the Denver zoo you can feed them special crackers from walkway!

Actually, it isn’t adorable. They’re in prison, not even on their own continent. And even more sadly, it’s getting to the point that they are being murdered to extinction on their own continent because they are so easy to kill, and for any giraffes to continue existing they have to be in a prison.
