BREVARD COUNTY • MELBOURNE, FLORIDA – Brevard Zoo giraffe Johari’s calf is now out and about.

“This little one is unusually brave for such a young giraffe, venturing within just a few yards of the viewing platform,” said the Brevard Zoo on Facebook.

While the Brevard Zoo can’t guarantee she’ll be viewable during your visit, she should be out for a few hours each day.

This is the eighth giraffe birth at the Brevard Zoo.

The Brevard Zoo has a BIG baby. Last Sunday, giraffe Johari gave birth to a female calf weighing 152 pounds. The baby giraffe will probably remain behind the scenes for a few weeks before she makes her public debut. (Brevard Zoo image)
