After tallying the votes from its naming contest, Animal Adventure Park decided to let Alyssa, one of April and Taj’s keepers, name the giraffe.

According to the park, the name Tajiri was chosen because Alyssa “felt the little calf has given hope to countless live stream viewers, and that the baby is a definite sign of hope for the future of giraffe conservation.”
