On January 9 we celebrated Becky the giraffe's 30th birthday! Becky is the oldest member of our herd and was born here at Cheyenne Mountain Zoo January 9, 1981!
Researchers maintain that giraffes typically live to about 25 years old in the wild, but can live to over 30 years old in captivity (see more giraffe facts online).
Here are some photos of the special "cake" she received on this very special birthday.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BECKY!
