▲Xiaojiu and Juzhong fight for territory.
Taipei Municipal Zoo html The 67-year-old giraffe Xiaojiu passed away in the early morning of the 10th. He was originally scheduled to go on a blind date with the giraffe "Jenny" at the Leofoo Village Wildlife Park, but a tragedy happened during the transportation. It is understood that the park was hanging and transporting Xiaojiu, but found that Xiaojiu suddenly sat or lay down. The veterinarian believed that the transportation must be stopped. No abnormality was found during the anesthesia examination. After the antidote was injected, he slowly regained consciousness, but suddenly stopped breathing and emergency treatment was ineffective.
Xiaojiu, who is 4.3 meters tall, was originally going to take a trailer to Leofoo Village for a blind date. The zoo explained that because the five giraffes in the zoo, 3 males and 2 females, are from the same family, there would be problems with inbreeding, so they would look for giraffes from different groups in the country to reproduce. In the past, the giraffes Xiaoshun and Xiaoqiang were sent to Tainan to marry their wives when they were over 1 year old. They were relatively small and were easier to transport.
▼Xiao Shun, a minor who went to Tainan to get married 2 years ago, found it easier to carry. This time, the length of Xiao Shun was 4.3 meters, making it difficult to carry.
