Mr Gigit has been making use of the zoo's many and varied trees to teach himself Trees. I took this photo of a beautiful, delicate-looking specimen at the corner of the zebra field for ID purposes. It was a Fern-leaved acacia, full of buds. This morning we discovered that all that was left of it was a stump and a pile of branches near the giraffe house I'll have to find out what led to its demise.
