LOXAHATCHEE, Fla. — A new giraffe has joined the Lion Country Safari family. Now the animal just needs a name.
Lion Country Safari spokeswoman Haley McCann said a male giraffe was born Tuesday in front of visitors who witnessed the calf's birth from their vehicles.
The calf is currently bonding with his 18-year-old mother, Ayanna, in a maternity area visible to guests from the road near the end of the safari.

Lion Country Safari is asking for the public's help naming the 150-pound, 5-foot-10-inch calf.
The calf makes 17 giraffes in Lion Country Safari's care. It is one of the largest giraffe herds in the country.
