I'm cracking up every time she's at the lower feeder - Geoffrey the Giraffe's head lines up perfectly with where hers is...

I never knew how beautiful and graceful a giraffe could be until now. Thanks to April and all the hours of watching this beautiful, magnificent Animal!!

Hm. April apparently didn't get the memo that decreased appetite is one of the signs of giraffe labor. She's just munching away. Again. Which means, the next time we see that tail up, it won't be a hoof popping out.

Facebook Park Update: 3/29 Evening Update "Taco Induction" Keep on laughing! Our sense of humor has kept us sane throughout this entire process! Tonight, I will share with you Dr Tim's report to his following friends and colleagues. "Ok Gang... if you have been watching today, you should start getting excited... we are seeing almost all the signs of birth happening within the coming days... of course, my schedule is crazy for the next few days so naturally, we will pick the worst time possible. Hah. In an effort to speed things along I am launching "Operation Taco Induction"... let's see what happens. (Not in Labor...) yet. - disclaimer - she didn't actually get a taco. I'm not ridiculous." Keepers report continued discharge and mammary development. Appetite was off this morning - back this evening! Never miss a beat by subscribing to our YouTube Channel! www.youtube.com/channel/UClnQCgFa9lCBL-KXZMOoO9QAlso, stay connected to all things April through her site - www.ApriltheGiraffe.comNow is not the time to loose the link or miss an update! Rest with one eye open tonight! Thank you all! So the picture, for those of you without Facebook the vet's? hand with a taco (carrot a and lettuce in a taco shell), hence taco induction. Lol

Is the feed super glitchy/laggy for anyone else tonight? Yes. I would guess because there are so many people watching.

3/30 Morning Update Like many of you, we spent the evening watching our April. She continues to progress. Mammary development stays remains as filled udders, and will likely not get much Larger. Discharge continues to be present. Appetite is so - so this morning. We continue calf countdown. Www.aprilthegiraffe.comWill have you links to the cam, updates, the online store and more. Like our Facebook and subscribe to YouTube for any official announcements that need be made. Giraffe Factoid: We've got Heart The giraffe heart is approx 25lbs; a powerful muscle to send blood up to the head.

April is being rotten. She's been standing super still for a while. I had to watch her ears to make sure the feed hadn't dropped. And, you can only see her from about the middle of her back and forward. Her business end is out of camera range/blocked by the enclosure.
