Who doesn’t love a cute baby giraffe?
Giraffes give birth to babies that are almost 6 feet tall so it makes sense that they only have one calf at a time. A typical giraffe can have about 10 calves in a life time.
Jang-Soon, the mamma in this video, has given birth more than that; this is her 18th calf, a world record. Jang-Soon resides in a South Korea safari park and has been faithful to her lifetime partner for 24 years.
Samsung Everland safari park said the mamma previously shared the record with a giraffe in Paris. Past record holders also include giraffes from Melbourne and San Diego that gave birth to 16 calves.
If you love giraffes check out the exhibit at Southwick’s Zoo, its beautiful. If you are a giraffe nut like my daughter you can even sign up for a Giraffe Encounter for an opportunity to feed the graceful spotted animals.
