New Addition to the Family

The Oakland Zoo has a new addition to the family! On May 3 a healthy male giraffe was born, according to a recent zoo release. Zoo officials haven't named the new calf yet, but report that the youngster is spending his time sleeping and eating and bonding with his mother, Twiga. Expect him to make his public debut sometime later this month. The Oakland Zoo is located at 9777 Golf Links Road, Oakland, (510) 632-9525.
