What is a generic giraffe? As in, not a hybrid, Rothschild's, Reticulated, etc?

I was under the impression they were wild. Either way, I don't know the species.

It means a Reticulated x Rothschild's hybrid.

Is anyone familiar with the names of the female southern white rhinos? I went on a tour yesterday and I got close to one of the females and I cannot remember her name - I want to say like firestar or stardust? She's a female who has not had a calf of her own yet, but she tends to nanny the babies.

I suppose her name could be Firefly.

I suppose her name could be Firefly.

That sounds right, thank you!

I suppose her name could be Firefly.

She is local and born in 2011 and does not as yet seem to have had a calf. There are big changes happening in the composition of the Wilds' white rhino herd and all I can say she is included in their breeding plans.
