Birth of a masai giraffe at the zoo Miyazaki August 3 23:32

A cute baby Masai Giraffe was born at a zoo in Miyazaki.

I was born with an 8 year old female "Koyume" and a 4 year old male "Fuyushin" from the Phoenix Natural Zoo in Miyazaki.

Then, around 10 am on August 1, it was confirmed that the baby's toes were out, and it was born approximately two hours after that.

In the footage taken immediately after childbirth, you can see Koyume's face approaching and licking his baby as he walks in a gait, which is not surprising.

Although the baby is not open to the public yet, it means that he is cheerfully running and feeding while spending time with Koyume.

Masato Takeda, Deputy Director of the Phoenix Zoo in Miyazaki City, said, "I'm really relieved that I was born safely. I want you to see the cute and cute eyes of a giraffe baby."
