ATTENTION: Giraffes will be kept in their heated barn if the weather is not ideal for their species and their comfort. This may include temperatures below 50 degrees or inclement weather. Our Animal Care experts assess the weather on a day-to-day basis with the safety of our animals as a top priority. They also consider the duration of time it will take to release the Giraffe's from their barn and for the Giraffes to safely return to the comfort of their barn.
