  1. At the zoo I volunteer at, we have a looped tape of a giraffe that was born at the zoo about 10 years ago. It is kind of fun to watch women’s reactions to seeing the tape.

    Derek–just wait until you see the videos during the LaMaze class you get to go to when your wife is pregnant.

  2. Haha yeah Tim. This sure looks clean compared to the messy facts (that you never hear about) which come with the birth of a baby.

  3. That’s cool. I wonder if Momma does that with her hoof kinda like a Dr. does with a smack to the butt or bottom of the feet?? Nature is wondrous.

  4. My last birth was about that fast. I didn’t drop my baby onto the floor though! Or kick her.
    I have heard that the drop helps kick start the baby giraffe. Not sure how true that is.
