@grok @johngignac68 @kadance01 Just wanted to make it clear that the video making the rounds is AI-generated and not filmed at #FossilRim. We definitely do not offer giraffe rides, planned, unplanned, or otherwise. 😉 The only bonus or surprise is a close up look at conservation in action.

Have you ever seen a giraffe running? One of this year's giraffe calves, Freddy, is more than happy to show you how it's done 🏃

@danjeez tours still go out as long as there is no lighting in the immediate area and the rain isn't torrential. If for some reason they can't go out, we work with you to reschedule.

Baby Luna is growing fast! Here you can see her spots begin to gain color and definition, something that will help care staff identify her within the herd

Wildebeest on the move! Even at Fossil Rim they give into their natural nomadic instinct, moving around the pasture daily!

Bison have lived in North America for around 400,000 years! Over that time they have shaped landscapes with their movements and grazing, fed generations of people and looked great doing it😎

[Fossil Rim Wildlife Center @FossilRim]

bison calves look different from their parents in one distinct way: their fur! babies have an orangey-red coat, earning them the nickname “red dogs!”

[Fossil Rim Wildlife Center @FossilRim]

Remember the old song, "oh give me a home, where the buffalo roam?" well, that's called Africa. Believe it or not, North America has no native buffalo! What you're thinking of are bison!

[Fossil Rim Wildlife Center @FossilRim]

We're talking Bison! NOT BUFFALO so don't even bring that up

In 1962, we launched Operation Oryx. This project focused on saving the Arabian oryx, which was at real risk of becoming extinct. We knew we had to act fast to save this desert antelope.
