Giraffe Arrives at Tulsa Zoo With Crooked Neck

[RayMorphin3s]

Maybe she was in a " girls fight" ( the name Amali seems to be girl name).

As i remeber they fight by hitting each other with the neck.

search youtube for : Fighting Giraffes - Excellent Footage

[ssmillsfeo]

[ilovetejay24]

[blazinaudi]

try viagra

[Golgothax]

Twisted giraffe, coolio

[whatmarc]

Poor Amali died while getting an x-ray. As a Tulsa native this breaks my heart. Actually it breaks my heart any way.

R.I.P. Amali

[bigfatowen]

Does it survive or die from something else or what.

[BMPmama698]

She fracutered her growth plates and passed away when they put her to sleep to do x-rays. Poor thing.

[xxwzaebd]

Poor giraffe.

[grn100cash]

I can't belive the Toys R Us giraffe would beat his kids like that. I mean spank thaem, dont leave them scared for life. Poor Giraffe

[EA1088]

@xxwzaebd I was horrified when I saw this on the news. If they are going to keep these animals in captivity and transport them, they need to have EXTREME safety precautions that should be in place for all sorts of situations.

[xxwzaebd]

There should be really professional people who are capable of the task.And specially designed equipment if needed.

[bkbroiler888]

Maybe they can push it back into shape.  Maybe not impossible. Or use a giraffe chiropractor..

[jpx7x]

makes my neck hurt looking ow

[sotolite]

poor giraffe...  i hope she gets well soon.

[ChristinaWatkinson]

this reminds me of Madagascar when those animals had to squish inside those boxes and that giraffe had it's neck all crooked lol

[IRSPONGEBOB]

Oh, poor thing, if they had left her in the wild she wouldn't have ended up like that! :(

[Jfred4290]

Check out the giraffe in the back of 2 Boys 1 Song lip syncing larger than life

[martinezjake]

she got it listening to the New Album No Ceilings by Lil Wayne[a little ironic]

[RijenRijen]

When P.E.T.A going to pay some models to naked protest against this ?? plss hurry up !

[aabprincess]

aaaw poor girffe :(

just by looking at her

it makes feel bad :(

I love animals but not

seeing them being hurt

like her

[triFeral]

Aww that's sad...

[Lean6]

There was a giraffe like this at the Santa Barbara zoo when I went a few years ago too. Very strange thing to look at. This one in Tulsa is in much better shape even....

[Lean6]

There's YouTube video. Search for 'Gemina'.

[LizziF019]

maybe it's a common injury in giraffes then? i hope she gets better!

[Lean6]

Yeah, if she's still at the SBZ, there's a quick writeup on their website that explains the condition.

[Lean6]

Well, scratch that, here's what it says now...

Gemina, the crooked-necked giraffe,

was one of the Santa Barbara Zoos most recognizable residents before her death in January 2008 after a long life, by giraffe standards, at age 21.

[limpidd]

the workers of the Tulsa zoo are incompetent.

those bastards.

[savageZA76]

Fix that animal A.S.A.P. That is controled animal abuse, dum ass mother F@Ckers

[HappySanta911]

lol you´re not serius are you

[MyWordizBond]

Animals in captivity ..........

This is so natural and beautiful... Lets bring our children there to let them see how we treat other living beings...

YOU FUCKING MORONS.....that's why you're going to hell. Amen.

[lilburnmafia]

Those sentences made no sense, whatsoever.

[RijenRijen]

would have been nice if the hell whas realy there sad it isnt... but i realy wish some people to it... and amen is nothing just a word... ther is no god .

[sublux]

Physical and mental stress causes spinal misalignments, ( or in this case a dislocation?).

Chiropractors are the experts at restoring alignment and allowing the nerves to then work normally - without good nerve supply animals do not function well!

[MyWordizBond]

FUckers... let the animal be free.. No jail for them............ Some zoo owner in Qeebec got murdered a couple of years ago.. I'm glad, but the zoo is still running. Human being behaving like animals should be put to jail.

[skunkapotamus]

Chiropractors are witch doctors and bullshit artists. A quick google search will reveal this. Subluxation my ass, would you like a quart of snake oil to go with that?

[nitetime9]

skunk, you don't know what you are talking about. A quick google will also reveal the world will end in 2012. The problem with chiropractors is that some will work on people that don't need anything and rip them off. But there are real uses for chiro and it can re-align joints, and reduce pain. And that's not a fake thing. They helped restore needed curvature back to my neck which was a source of my pain. So you just don't know.

[skunkapotamus]

Restored needed curvature to your neck, huh? Sounds like a scam to me.

[sublux]

Sounds like you need an alignment

[skunkapotamus]

Is that your pickup line?

[sublux]

I guess you might be needing to look at medical research on the effectiveness of chiropractic with normalizing blood pressure.....WebMD...search hypertention/chiropractic....n­ot that medical "research" adds ANY validity to anatomical fact...everyone already knows that nerves control everything going on in the body....it's a little easier to find a decent chiro than a safe and effective drug or surgical procedure.....now bend over and...

[skunkapotamus]

Its easier to find a used car salesman than a chiropractor but that doesnt mean theyre legit.

[Banez1991]

wtf there waiting till monday to see if its broken? ... they should immediately do it, the poor thing could die

[10mintwo]

"welllll, I did take that one detour through the abandoned speedbump factory..... but that's all"

[NeutralPlanet]

This is my confession as the transport driver. So I pulled over to get some gas and Amali said dude I can talk and I just want to have a night on the town before I get stuck in this Zoo. I obeyed the her because, well wouldn't you?! After the monster truck rally Amali said dude I've never been bowling. I was stunned and said but you don't have fingers! She replied just you wait... She bowled a near perfect game using the horns on her head, unfortunately the weight of the ball crushed her neck.

[slivercord]

give her some space maybe?? fuckign idiots..fucked up the animal...fuck zoos by the way..they need to find other place for the animals

[5hutupl1nda]

They havent given her an xray yet? Typical humans!

[mimi2957]

Call the chiropractor!

[pubtor]

...

[Jimmyjumpnjive]

poor thing.

[Vleesball]

ouch !

roller coaster fun.

[VisionQuest2012]

That looks painful.

[sweetseasons1]

In transport?Sounds like someone tried to put her in a confined space that wasn't tall enough?Poor thing.

[Pressthe8]

@sweetseasons1 Thats what I was thinking. Poor thing :(

[Pleiodes]

@sweetseasons1 giraffe tetris lol

[matman125]

They can debut her as "Amali the Wacky Giraffe!"
