Thanks for commenting, Tommy & Britt. I was fortunate to be at the zoo at feeding time when their keeper came out of the giraffe indoor compound and whistled to these girls for dinner. They stood like this until she opened the door for them to go in for dinner and one by one they did that. They seem very tame, intelligent and easy to manage. Cheers, -mikey

These guys have an inebriated look as if they had consumed the contents of those beer cans in Eligible. The one on the right is giving you the evil eye. I think the collective group qualifies with several patterns too. -tv
