Name The Baby Giraffe!

Meet Newly Named

Baby Giraffe!

The votes are IN… and our baby giraffe officially has a name!

Say hello to PAX — the newest member of our giraffe tower here at Global Wildlife Center! 

This gregarious little guy was born to Maci the reticulated giraffe June 8 and weighed 136 pounds and measured 5’7” tall during his neonate exam!

Every giraffe calf born is so important to the conservation of reticulated giraffes, as they are faced with a silent extinction in the wild. Although there are only 20,901 reticulated giraffes in the wild, their populations are increasing, and due in no small part to the Giraffe Conservation Foundation ’s heroic efforts protecting them.

A huge THANK YOU  to everyone who voted and helped us name our newest arrival to the tower!
Stay tuned, Pax will be around greeting visitors on the safari!
