I thought the snow was long gone.

Today it snowed.  


This meant that the giraffes stayed indoors.  They only go outside if the ground is dry and the temperature is above 40 degrees.  It was difficult today because it is hard to shift and separate the giraffes and the Okapi into the six stalls.  The weather's implications left little time for training and other extras today.

I have a video of the training that is done with Kahlid.  You will see the keeper Allison using her target stick to get him to stretch his neck.  You also get to see Kahlid crouch down like he is taking a drink of water! Enjoy:
