A World Without Giraffes?

Pairs of clean and unclean animals, of birds and of all creatures that move along the ground, male and female, came to Noah and entered the ark, as God commanded Noah. Genesis 7:8

Can you imagine telling your children about Noah’s Ark and having to explain what a giraffe is? Every image they see of the ark depicts the long necks of giraffes poking out of the top of the ark. But what if giraffes die out?

They are in danger of doing so.

Can you imagine? No giraffes? None?

This horrifies me, and that’s why I’m sharing this info today.

Today is World Giraffe Day, the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere and the longest night of the year in the Southern Hemisphere, a fitting day to remind the world of the tallest mammal on earth…at least for now.

Please take a moment today and consider what you can do to save one of God’s truly magnificent creatures! Below is an article on conserving giraffes, and if you want to know more, or MORE IMPORTANTLY, help save the giraffes, check out the Giraffe Conservation Foundation.
