High Diving Giraffes

Email from JKS Weerasekera

FANTASTIC, WATCH IT TO BELIEVE IT.


  - You Have to See it to Believe it!

This is incredible! The video is a French Production (5:27 mins).
Apparently they only perform in Australia. They don't tour because it costs too much to
transport these highly trained and valuable animals.
It take about 2 years to train one giraffe to feel comfortable in the water and
then another 3 or4 years to get them to dive.
They also train them using only the reward system, unlike other animal exhibitions
where they use harsh techniques.
