Benito the Giraffe's 40-Hour Journey to New Home
Benito, a giraffe, arrived at Africam Safari Park in central Mexico after a 40-hour road trip, leaving behind the city-run Central Park zoo in Ciudad Juarez due to concerns about his living conditions. The 4-year-old giraffe will join a herd of seven others in a 7.5-acre enclosure, where he will have more space and a habitat closer to his natural environment. The park's director expressed optimism about Benito's integration into the herd and his potential to contribute to giraffe conservation efforts.
