Eller The Giraffe Turns 7!

"Eller is our only female giraffe and she is adored by both of the boys. Kito has been besotted with her since the day she moved in in 2022 and Ronan really looks up to her and follows her around like a little shadow already. She's our most playful giraffe and on nice afternoons you can quite often spot her messing around on the giraffe yards, pushing the boys around and trying to get them to run around with her, especially Kito who has no time for her shenanigans!

She's a particularly beautiful girl, but she's also very goofy. She's very strong willed and can be a challenge for new keepers/volunteers to work with, but as long as they've got a good supply of snacks for her she always behaves in the end.. Mostly."
