Celebrate World Giraffe Day At San Diego Zoo

June 21 is the longest stretch of daylight in the year, making it a perfect fit to celebrate the longest-necked mammal; it’s World Giraffe Day!

Be sure to stop by San Diego Zoo‘s giraffe exhibit in Urban Jungle to talk to a giraffe keeper, take a tour behind the scenes of the giraffe barn, feed giraffes, do a fun kids craft, or get your picture taken with our giant giraffe puppets.
