Love giraffes this Valentines day

28 January 2010

Despite the recent freezing weather and heavy snow, the animals in the zoo can still provide that warm fuzzy feeling, particularly if you or your loved one has a soft spot for giraffes.

By adopting an animal in the zoo before Valentines Day, you can enter yourself and your partner in with the chance to feed the giraffes on Sunday 14th February. Just choose your level of adoption (bronze, silver or gold) and answer our question, what does a giraffe’s heart weigh?

The zoo is also holding a valentines love trail on 13th and 14th February, where you can take the compatibility test and find out more about your perfect animal partner. For more information email events@belfastzoo.co.uk or phone 02890782085.
