I’m almost sure it was a round tower, however,
I remember there was a spiral stairs like you would see in a round tower.
You went up to the top and could feed the giraffes because you were at their height.
This also featured in a magazine in the 1990’s.
I’m not sure if the magazine was a TV guide and there was a documentary.
The pictures were taken from outside and there was a young girl in the picture with blonde hair.
This is not the place in Nairobi, Kenya.
 
What country was this in? That may help people in guessing.. :)
 
I don’t know that’s the main issue. I’ve spent hours googling and nothing.
The only thing I know was it was a tower and had stone spindle stairs. And a room at the top with a window you could feed the giraffes.
 
There is an article entitled 'People involvement innovations at the Honolulu Zoo' in International Zoo Yearbook 15 (1975). A photo in this edition shows a structure with two towers, each containing a spiral staircase, linked by a short elevated walkway with guardrails, beside the giraffe enclosure. This should be available on-line, but behind the Wiley-Interscience paywall.
