Help Name A Newborn Spotless Giraffe
A Tennessee zoo is asking the public to vote on a name for one of its newborn giraffes. What makes this giraffe so special is that it was born without any spots. Here’s your chance to help name a newborn spotless giraffe.
David Bright, the zoo director at Brights Zoo in Limestone, Tennessee, said the giraffe was born July 31 and its appearance was “definitely a shock.”
“This is our first one without a pattern,” said Bright, who has been the zoo director at the private, family-run zoo for the last two decades.
Brights Zoo is holding a naming contest for the rare giraffe calf on its Facebook page until September 4th and is asking the public to vote on the final four Swahili name options:
Kipekee (means “unique”)
Firali (means “unusual” or “extraordinary”)
Shakiri (means “She is most beautiful”)
Jamella (means “one of great beauty”)

Best Places in North Carolina to Explore Different Animals
Are you looking to have some fun with animals? Well, I have been contemplating fun things to do and for some reason, a petting zoo has been on my mind. It’s probably because I recently went to Disney World and Animal Kingdom was my absolute favorite place. From The Lion King being my favorite movie to the Safari Tour at Animal Kingdom, I have been thinking about animals like crazy. But, there is no Animal Kingdom here in Charlotte for me to enjoy, right? So, I have to think of somewhere else.
Of course, I decided to take matters into my own hands. That means I am looking into petting zoos, zoos, and all types of animal parks in the state. Why not have some animal-friendly fun? Let’s enjoy some time with the animals and see what you can do here in North Carolina. Can’t wait!
