Giraffe Center in Nairobi

"The purpose of the Giraffe Centre is to create awareness and provide free environmental education aimed at sensitising Kenyan youth and the general population on the need to appreciate and conserve Kenya's biodiversity. We give local and international visitors an opportunity to come into close contact with, and feed the world's tallest animal, the Giraffe."

Wow. That is a long tongue. Giraffe tongues are about 18" long.

Matthew feeding a gentle giraffe. A few minutes later he was head-butted by a frustrated giraffe that was being taunted by other visitors. Be nice to the animals.
