Update on April the Giraffe - basically nothing new

Animal Adventure Park has a video update with lots of information:



The official webcam site for live feed:


The others are not official - watch the top video for more informaiton

The big "news" is that they are wondering if April conceived a cycle later than they originally thought. Giraffe's cycle every 17 days - if she had conceived when they thought, she would have been due about February 24/25. If it was a cycle later, it could be two weeks before she has her baby.

She is NOT in labor yet - any bumps seen in her abdomen are just the baby moving around. Everything is normal, nothing to worry about, just a lot of waiting around for those few minutes of excitement!
