Description

Are you ready to stand tall for giraffe? Some of you may remember that 2 years ago we released an episode all about the wonderful world of the giraffe! Well, since this series we are celebrating all things Africa it felt wrong not to include them, and so we are republishing that episode for you all to enjoy... or maybe for you all to discover for the first time! 
So, today Jack is joined by the incredible Julian and Stephanie Fennessy from the Giraffe Conservation Foundation to discuss all things giraffe! The trio discuss their incredible work all across the continent of Africa, the wonderful educations programmes they are running and the practical in the field conservation initiatives that they help to operate! 
Since this episode aired originally, Jack has had the pleasure of meeting Julian and Stephanie in real life when they visited Edinburgh Zoo last year - it was an absolute joy! Alongside a trip to Scotland, Julian & Stephanie's calendar has also included a lot of very hard work! The Giraffe Conservation Foundation now works in around 18 countries on anti-poaching campaigns, translocations, surveying, and education. They have just gone from strength to strength and it is an honour to have them on the show!
(Originally aired on 21/06/2021 as '17. Stick Your Neck Out for Giraffe')
