A giraffe without spots at a Tennessee zoo may be plain, but she’s definitely not ordinary.
The female reticulated giraffe was born July 31 at the family-owned Brights Zoo in Limestone, a rural community in northeastern Tennessee.
David Bright, one of the zoo’s owners, said the plain brown animal is a rarity: The spots serve as camouflage for giraffes in the wild.
The yet-unnamed baby is healthy and on display at the 103-acre zoo along with her mother, he said.
