He’s very tall and very cute and brand new. Early Friday morning, January 30 the Houston Zoo welcomed the birth of a bouncing baby boy Masai giraffe. “He was born around 6:30 a.m. and by 7:50 a.m. he was standing on his own,” said Houston Zoo Supervisor Laurie McGivern. “He’s 69 and a half inches tall and weighs 110 pounds. He’s has all the appearances of a strong and healthy boy,” said McGivern. Miles can now be visited at Houston Zoo giraffe exhibit. “When Miles is in his barn stall Zoo guests can view him through the stall window at the rear of the giraffe exhibit,” said McGivern. “The staff will also be presenting Meet the Keeper Talks with him at various times during the day,” added McGivern. Zoo guests are encouraged to visit the Zoo’s Web site at http://www.houstonzoo.org/ for the Meet the Keeper Talk schedules at the giraffe exhibit.
