Thanks - I was certainly happy to get them all in shot, and most of them in a line, equidistant from the camera, to make size comparisons easier.
Ina is indeed huge... 5.2m/17ft according to her signage, which is the top end of the range for female reticulated giraffe I believe. Will be interesting to see whether Bashu reaches those lofty heights himself!
What I didn't know until last night's 'THE ZOO ' programme is that the very tall female 'Ina' also gave birth to a female calf (it said her first?)a few months ago, which sadly died after a few days. So all three females in this group have produced female calves since last October.
