Giraffe Calf Joins Herd on Disney's Animal Kingdom Savanna |

|
Guests at Disney's Animal Kingdom at Walt Disney
World Resort may be able to spot a new addition on the Kilimanjaro
Safaris savanna. A 2-month-old male Masai giraffe named Jabari has
officially joined the giraffe herd. Jabari, which means "brave one"
in Swahili, is a bold, curious and courageous calf and his name
celebrates his spirit. Standing seven feet tall, Jabari has spent
the past two months bonding with his mom, Mara, in a backstage
habitat. True to his name, Jabari has quickly reached all his key
developmental milestones, so on March 12, 2019, he was reintroduced
to the savanna and his tower - otherwise known as a group of
giraffe. Jabari has several special distinctions; he is the first
giraffe calf to be born on the savanna at Disney's Animal Kingdom,
and he has a special heart-shaped spot on his neck.
