Separated at birth???


Competition for Flocke ?

Flocke got an additional long-legged competition:

Since August 9th, at the giraffe`s enclosure, the giraffe baby Epesi is up for mischief. The “little one” is nearly 1.80 meter tall and already weighs 50 kilo. Epsesi has almost the same weight as our “bundle of wool” Flocke.

Flocke weighs about 60 kilo, but only the height of 1.20 meter standing upright. Nevertheless, Epesi is not a suitable playmate for Flocke, because in the long run, Flocke would like the little fellow too much – that is to say that she would like to eat her.
