    Default Giraffe Born At Animal Kingdom

    Giraffe Born At Animal Kingdom



    Central Florida News 13
    April 4, 2007

    The birth of a baby giraffe at the Animal Kingdom at the Walt Disney World Resort Monday was cause for celebration at the park.

    The six-foot-one inch, 150 pound giraffe was born Monday. She’s the fifth giraffe born at Disney's Animal kingdom. The new baby girl, named Rori, and her mother Nikki, are both doing fine and will be on the Disney savannah with the rest of the herd in the next few weeks.

    What's wrong with this picture: I'm only one inch taller, but 80 lbs. heavier than a baby giraffe! Time for a diet!

    Baby giraffe is very cute.
