World Giraffe Day is an exciting annual event initiated by the Giraffe Conservation Foundation to celebrate the tallest animal on the longest day of the year – June 21st – every year!
Not only is it a worldwide celebration of these amazing and much-loved animals, but an annual event to raise support, create awareness and shed light on the challenges giraffe face in the wild. By supporting World Giraffe Day (WGD), you directly help save giraffe in Africa. With only approximately 117,000 giraffe remaining in the wild, the time is right to act NOW!
You can also adopt-a-giraffe at the link above!
The Lion Habitat Ranch will be celebrating World Giraffe Day all weekend long, which is also Father’s Day weekend! Ozzie, the painting giraffe would love for you all to come out to celebrate! Book your admission in advance here or at the ticket booth the days of the festivities.
There will be a “giraffle” both days to win a custom Ozzie painting experience. Drawing for the “giraffle” will take place at 1pm at the giraffe area each day. Tickets for the “giraffle” can only be purchased on the day of your visit and the winner must be present at the drawing.
There will also be a giraffe costume contest each day at noon, as well as a scavenger hunt for kids to learn all about giraffes. If you haven’t had the pleasure of meeting or feeding Ozzie, this weekend is a perfect time!
