Happy Birthday, Willow!

She’s the tallest toddler in Baltimore, and now she’s turning two! Two years ago, we welcomed our first giraffe calf to be born in more than 20 years. On February 6, 2017, the Zoo welcomed the newest (and tallest) newborn into the herd. Watch Willow’s journey from newborn to two years old in the video below!
