April the Giraffe finally has her calf

Tweet

I know it happened a few days ago already - but April the giraffe finally had her calf. I know people had been following her for months, but I first became aware of her about a month ago. Actually, I became aware of April in a really odd way. On my social media account I saw a video clip of a heavily pregnant woman, wearing a realistic giraffe mask. The woman was pacing about, stretching, etc. I had no idea what it was all about, until someone told me that the world had been watching April, a pregnant giraffe - via webcam. I didn't follow April extensively - though I had friends who did. There was something peaceful about watching the tall mammal walk around her pen, socialize with Ollie (the giraffe in the next stall, her "boyfriend") and watching her interact with the keepers that would come in and check on her. I didn't watch the birth, live. To be honest, I don't know how I feel about that. Part of me wanted April to have privacy. On the other hand she's a giraffe - and doesn't know the concept of camera, or people watching her. April's calf is a male and the zoo is holding a fundraiser. For $5 you can suggest 5 names for the calf. If it were a girl my suggest would have been May, or June. I really like keeping with the idea of months - so for this male calf - I think August/Auggie or Jan/January.... What is your opinion of April Giraffe? What would you name the calf?
