A Florida theme park is celebrating the perfectly timed birth of a baby giraffe just two days before World Giraffe Day. For many wildlife lovers and conservationists, the newborn calf represents a ray of hope amid uncertain times for the species.
On June 19, 2020, Busch Gardens in Tampa Bay, Florida, welcomed its latest baby giraffe into the world. The yet-to-be-named male calf, reports CL Tampa Bay, is the third baby born to a 14-year-old reticulated giraffe named Bea after a 15-month-long pregnancy.
