wildlife world zoo prices Meet Our Newborn Giraffe, Austin

Long-Awaited Birth of a Reticulated Giraffe at
Wildlife World Zoo, Aquarium & Safari Park!!!!!!!

Wildlife World Zoo, Aquarium & Safari Park welcomes a newborn Reticulated Giraffe to the Family! Baby Austin made his debut into the world on February 18, 2018. And, at just a few days old, this precious calf is already standing over 6 feet tall!

Austin was born strong and healthy. He and his mother are doing great and will be on display each day at the giraffe exhibit. Female giraffes have a gestation of fifteen months, one of the longest gestations in the animal kingdom. In a statement made by Wildlife World’s Deputy Director, Jack Ewert, "the calf is thriving under the close watch of his attentive mother. Over the next few weeks, keepers will continue to introduce mother and baby to the rest of the herd."

At Wildlife World’s 12-foot tall giraffe feeding station, visitors have an opportunity to feed and come face-to-face with the giraffes and see Austin. Using their 18-inch tongue and prehensile lips, these gentle giant's will eat a mouthful of pellets right out of your hand for a one of a kind experience.

In the wild, the giraffe population is under a lot of pressure. This is largely due to habitat loss, fragmentation, degradation, poaching, and ultimately the growth of the human population. In 2016, the species was declared Vulnerable to Extinction on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.

Joining in the fight to save the giraffe population from extinction, Wildlife World has raised 9 giraffes’ in the last 16 years. The giraffes are ambassadors for their species and inspire visitors to conserve and protect their wild counterparts. Mickey Ollson, founder of the Wildlife World Zoo, believes the success of the zoo's internationally recognized giraffe breeding program is due to the expertise and dedication from its management, keepers, and veterinary team, and Arizona's ideal climate conditions, which is similar to the savannas throughout Africa.

It's baby season at Wildlife World Zoo! Currently on display is Arizona’s first marine mammal, Sunny the Sea Lion, black swans, several hoofed animal species including llamas, gazelle, and oryx, primate species, and other youngsters throughout the 100-acre park.

Wildlife World’s keepers and veterinarians have raised dozens of species of wild and endangered animals over the past quarter century. Wildlife World strives to maximize genetic diversity in the zoological population with their breeding programs. With more

than 6000 animals on display, there's always new arrivals at Wildlife World Zoo, Aquarium & Safari Park.
