In New York, a meeting of two of the most famous giraffe-moms on social networks finally took place.
Members Facebook in fact, at the same time expecting the birth of a baby from April the giraffe and the birth of a baby from another “mother-giraffe” - photographer from South Carolina Erin Dietrich.
Erin Dietrich began to illustrate her expectation of a child by posting photos in a giraffe mask to the social network, after installing a webcam in a cage at a New York zoo where April giraffe was supposed to give birth. April's relentless behavior was monitored by about 2 millions of users. The giraffe female did not give birth for a long time, and the audience began to assume that she was not pregnant at all.
As reported ForumDaily, Erin Dietrich decided to keep up and began to cover the expectation of the child, wearing a giraffe mask. About 11 millions of people watched her videos in 16 hours. She gave birth to a baby 8 March. This is her third child. April was born only on Saturday 15 April.
This week, Erin Dietrich and her newborn baby came to visit April. The giraffe female treated the visitors very warmly and even licked the baby Erin as if she was her own.
