In honor of the longest day of the year, Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park announced the recent birth of a strapping, long-necked male giraffe. The healthy Masai giraffe calf was born on June 10, 2021 at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park at Walt Disney World Resort in Lake Buena Vista, Fla. Mom Lily, and her yet-to-be-named son are bonding privately and will join the herd on the Kilimanjaro Safaris savanna in the coming weeks. (David Roark, photographer)
