ABQ BioPark holding 30th birthday bash for June the giraffe

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (KRQE) – A giraffee at the Albuquerque BioPark is about to turn 30 years old and the BioPark has a big birthday bash planned. June is the oldest reticulated giraffe at the zoo and her 30th birthday is significant because the median age for a female of her species is around 20 years. In fact, it’s believed June is the fifth oldest female reticulated giraffe in North America.
