PEORIA, Ill. — There’s a tall, newborn resident at the Peoria Zoo in Illinois, but she needs a name.
The zoo is asking for the public’s help in naming a baby giraffe that was born this month to parents Vivian and Taji. Starting on Jan. 26, people can go to the zoo’s website and, for a $1 donation, suggest a name.
