Heads up, or rather necks up, from The Wilds (a conservation center in Cumberland, Ohio): a new giraffe calf has strutted onto the scene. This latest addition marks the 22nd giraffe birth at the center. Proud mother, Savannah, isn’t a first-timer, this being her seventh calf, and the dad, Raha, has certainly left his mark, fathering 11 calves. With the Masai giraffe population facing concerning declines, this birth brings a ray of hope. The Wilds, in partnership with the Columbus Zoo, is pouring effort and funds into conservation initiatives across Africa to safeguard the future of these towering beauties. If you’re around Ohio, pop by The Wilds and get up close with some real high-flyers of the animal kingdom.
