It's #WorldGiraffeDay. Come for a walk through with Pips.
She is nine months old, and the youngest giraffe orphan in our care. We rescued her in September 2025 after her mother was killed by lions. She had been hiding alone for days, slipping in to drink at a water trough and disappearing again.
Pips is in esteemed company. The first giraffe we raised to the wild was Kiko, rescued in 2015 and now continuing his rewilding at Lewa. Twiggy, another, joined the wild around the time Pips turned up, and has been seen in the company of a boyfriend.
Pips is still at the beginning of her journey. Read her story and help support Kenya's giraffe with an adoption: https://t.co/PhHUL6MgVg
“How do you feel about Trump?”
KNICKS FAN: “I f*cking hate him… This shit right here? The revolution starts in NYC. Brunson is the Messiah— if we bring this energy to the pedophiles that run 🌎, we can do anything.”
@nyknicks@NY_KnicksPR really going to the White House?😬
Wild elephant mothers don't raise calves alone. Nannies do half the work – older females who walk close to the newborn, step in when the calf wobbles, keep watch while the mother feeds, take over the standing-guard shift when she needs to rest. Among elephants, this role is called allomothering. It's how calves survive.
Melia and Kitirua have been close since their Nursery days, and when Melia chose to bring her new daughter, Moon, home, Kitirua was waiting to help.

Like clockwork each election season, prominent Republicans in Colorado turn their confusion over how elections work into suggestions of election fraud rather than asking their county clerk or using Google.
This is by far the funniest clip I've ever seen on Tiktok. And the comments from American women..OMG hilarious. American men, you are cooked!
Get over to Tiktok and read those comments! @danielthescotsman
Zuri is happiest ensconced among her new family! Her name means "good" in Swahili and, predictability, her arrival at our Nairobi Nursery has sent the older female orphans into a tailspin as they lavish her in attention.
Physically, Zuri is doing really well but, emotionally, she has some healing ahead of her. Well victims are so often traumatised and Zuri's time inside the septic tank clearly still haunts her. She can be shy around new faces. Here, though, she is at her happiest.

Dear Joe,
I wish I could sit down with you face to face and explain why so many of us were offended by the UFC fight on the South Lawn of the White House.
For me, it had nothing to do with the UFC or who showed up for the fights. The brand you and Dana have built is a bona fide American success story. More power to you. As for the fighters, in my book, anyone brave enough to put it all on the line in the arena is remarkable to witness. Their dedication and discipline inspire me. I don’t understand anyone who can’t admire that.
And as for the people who attended, I, for one, love Shane Gillis. I think he’s hilarious and brilliant. It was a show. A once-in-a-lifetime spectacle. I can’t blame anyone for wanting to witness it firsthand.
My problem is that I believe some of our public spaces are sacred. And unlike many of the great powers that came before us, these American monuments belong to all of us. Not to whoever happens to hold power at the moment.
The White House does not belong to Donald Trump. It does not belong to any President. It belongs to the people. To treat it as Caesar treated the Colosseum is antithetical to everything our founding fathers fought for.
This is not Rome. Presidents are not emperors doling out bread and circuses for the peasants. The White House is the People’s House. This “celebration” could have happened in any stadium within a stone’s throw of the South Lawn. No one would have had an issue with it.
But that was obviously Donald Trump’s whole point. By holding the event on the South Lawn, what he was saying to the rest of us is:
“This is my house. I own it. I will do with it what I please. I’ll build a colosseum and have the gladiators fight under my gaze. I’ll tear down the East Wing. I’ll pave over the Rose Garden. I’ll cover everything in gold and marble. I’ll erase the names of all the men who came before me.”
The fights were an exhibition of imperial domination, not a celebration of our 250th anniversary as a democracy.
The White House is not Buckingham Palace. It is not the Palace of Versailles. It is not the Forbidden City of Beijing. It does not belong to an emperor, or a king, or a commissar.
The White House belongs to us. All of us. The person who sits behind the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office is nothing more than an honored guest. A temporary caretaker.
The President is our servant. Not our Caesar.
Respectfully, Hunter
P.S. Cage match between me and Don Jr.? Your call on the venue. Anywhere but the South Lawn.
Donald does not like this ad one bit. He complained to Fox for running it- and demanded they take it off the air.
So whatever you do- DON'T RETWEET IT. Because that would make him very upset.
I’ve defended the administration’s America 250 plans, because I trusted they really would be non partisan, really would bring us together. But I was wrong. And it sucks. I also apologize to the musical acts who dropped out who I criticized. They saw it.
HEGSETH: “The document says Iran will never have a nuclear weapon.”
BRENNAN: “(Obama’s Iran Deal) said that too.” 🎯
HEGSETH: “The difference is we did this from a position of strength.” 🤡
(TRANSLATION: this was an unnecessary, costly war that accomplished nothing)
The work crew is really groovin’ as Trump’s name is ripped off the Kennedy Center. 😂
“Young man, pick yourself off the ground” … peak YMCA celebration vibes. 🎶
America is healing one scaffold dance at a time! 🕺
