As we celebrate World Giraffe Day on 21 June 2023, we focus our attention on supporting the pioneering initiatives to bring giraffe back into their historical habitat in Africa through translocations. Sadly, the vast majority of sub-Saharan Africa's once abundant giraffe populations have dwindled over the years due to habitat loss, fragmentation, degradation, human population growth, illegal hunting, disease, and conflict. However, conservation translocations of giraffe have proven to be a vital
tool in restoring their historical range and revitalising small populations.Â
Every donation made on World Giraffe Day 2023 will assist to reclaim their natural habitat and ensure a brighter future for all giraffe species in Africa. Â
Join 🦒 giraffe lovers around the world to walk, jog, run, swim or cycle 5km, wherever you are, to help raise awareness and much needed funding for giraffe this WGD. Sign-up NOW to make sure you don't miss out on adding this year's medal 🏅 to your collection - last year’s event was a sell-out! Our friends at Frank Buck Zoo will again host an in-person event on 24 June, so book now to be a part of this exciting initiative. Join us to #StandTallForGiraffe.
