Sv: Sjiraffen skal føde!
Ikke for å være negativ, men visstnok ser man lite tegn på fødselen før man ser kalven komme ut. Fordi tydelige fødselstegn hadde gjort henne sårbar for rovdyr sånn ute i villmarken.
Sitat:
Is April actually in labor? There's been a lot of speculation of how long April has been in labor and if she's actually contracting. Patch explained that it's not very likely that you will be able to tell April's labor until you see an actual hoof begin to poke out of her rear-end. Giraffe's instinctively hide their labor for however long it's lasting in order to not draw attention from predators who will wait out a giraffe's labor in order to attack once the calf is born.
One sign of active labor is when the giraffe's water breaks. It can be anywhere from a slow trickle of liquid to a flow of mucus.
