The Singapore Zoo's baby giraffe, who was born during the year-long SG50 celebrations, has been named Jubilee.
The male calf, whose birthday falls on 31 August 2015, is the first giraffe born in the zoo in 28 years. His name was picked from a shortlist of six names.
Today, he is 2.7m tall and is said to have a calm personality. Visitors can catch a glimpse of Jubilee in the Wild Africa zone where he lives with his parents.
At a statuesque 1.9 metres on 31 August 2015, he is the tallest SG50 baby, and is a symbol of Singapore soaring to new heights in the years following its Jubilee celebration.
The calf is the first offspring of both mom Roni and dad Growie, which arrived in Singapore Zoo in 2005, from Israel and the Netherlands respectively. The unnamed calf has since grown 40cm, and stands at 2.3 metres on 12 November 2015.
During the calf’s first month, zookeepers kept them separated from the rest of the giraffe herd to allow mother and baby to bond, and to ensure the calf was nursing properly. Keepers also needed time to baby-proof the exhibit as a safety precaution before allowing the calf to explore its new surroundings. Existing barriers had to be modified to ensure the baby can explore the exhibit safely.

Gradually, mother and baby were reintroduced to the other two giraffes in the herd—Growie, the father, and Lucy, an unrelated female, which arrived in Singapore together with Roni. The conditioning process took close to three weeks, as keepers wanted to ensure the calf was accepted by the herd. All four are now comfortably sharing the exhibit and can regularly be seen grooming each other to strengthen their bonds.
Aside from the mother’s milk, the calf can now be seen nibbling on leaves and chopped vegetables such as carrots. He now spends his days exploring and running around in the exhibit at the Zoo’s Wild Africa zone. While he’s starting to get used to passing trams and visitors, he will still race back to the safety of mom’s towering presence when faced with something unfamiliar.
The baby giraffe is adopted by GROW growing-up milk from Abbott Laboratories (Singapore) Pte Ltd.
