00:04Why do I think giraffes are cool? Well, look at them. They have this unique long neck,
00:09this really cool coat pattern, and then they have these fuzzy little horns that we call ossicones.
00:23Hi, my name is David O'Connor and I'm a giraffe researcher with San Diego Zoo Global. Today,
00:28I'm in Namanyuk, which is in northern Kenya in Africa. We're in Sorara Camp, where they're looking
00:33after three young giraffe. A group of giraffe is called a tower, so let me introduce you to this
00:42tower. First off is Twigs. She's the oldest of the three. Twiga in the Swahili language means giraffe.
00:51Being the oldest giraffe in the tower means she has to be a good role model for the rest of
00:55the group.
00:59This is Mara. She's the next oldest in the tower. Mara translates to spotted in the Ma language.
01:07When Mara first arrived at Sorara Camp, she was in rough shape. Her ear had been badly injured,
01:12but the staff here took great care of her and now she's all healed up. This is the youngest of
01:20the
01:20three giraffe. She's so new to Sorara Camp that she doesn't even have a name yet. What do you think
01:26her
01:26name should be? The giraffe have one main caretaker. His name is Leku Panai. Say hi Leku Panai.
01:41So what? Leku Panai has a great relationship with the three young giraffe. Every day each giraffe gets a
01:52bottle of milk. And boy, do they love their milk. Just look at them go. They're so eager. Leku Panai
01:58can
01:58barely stay standing. Gotta get every last drop.
02:10Hey, try to get some milk in your mouth next time.
02:18Oh boy, it's Leku Panai. Maybe he has some milk for us. Let's see.
02:33After they have their bottles, it's time to go out and roam the vast landscape of Namanyuk.
02:39During this time, they can figure out how to forage for food and learn what it takes to be a
02:44wild giraffe.
03:04After a long day, it's time for these young giraffe to go to their stables and get some sleep.
03:11They'll need their rest because tomorrow will be another day full of adventure.
03:22in the world of life.
