"Rare Spotless Giraffe Born at Tennessee Zoo, Public Invited to Name Her"

A Tennessee zoo is seeking help from the public to name a rare spotless giraffe that was born last month. This unique giraffe is the only known one in the world, and its birth has brought attention to the conservation efforts for the endangered reticulated giraffe species. The zoo will hold a naming contest on Facebook, offering four name options for people to vote on. The reticulated giraffe is characterized by large brown spots separated by cream-colored lines, and the spots serve both as camouflage and a means to release heat through blood vessels underneath.
