Title: Watching April The Giraffe
Post by: PrimeTimer on March 29, 2017, 08:56:58 PM
Right now there are over 106K people watching the rear-end of a giraffe, all waiting to see her baby be born. Anyone going to admit to that?   :sir ken;

I have read a few articles about April, but I cannot say I have ever watched her live feed.

Someone keeps posting it on my Facebook feed.  I found it interesting its been going on for about three weeks now with no activity.  So basically people are watching the Giraffe stand around for three weeks.. The company sure got a good run for the feed.  Now there is a little ToysRUs icon on the feed so they are getting some $$.

My heart aches for animals in captivity. Animal Adventure Park says all their animals were acquired by rescue or voluntary surrender from previous owners. They can't be let go in the wild, they wouldn't survive. I think they are taking good care of Oliver and April. I find myself getting attached. There is also a web cam for an elephant sanctuary in Tennessee. I love elephants!
