Fun bit of trivia here, his name is Brandon and he's named after a rookie San Francisco Giant (baseball) player named Brandon Belt, who got the nickname "Baby Giraffe" because of his lankyness and awkward running.

Here's a pic of the two Brandon's and the momma Giraffe (sorry no imgur, i'm at work) http://larrybrownsports.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/brandon-belt-giraffe1.jpg

Welcome to the world you ridiculous looking and seemingly unnecessary part of the ecosystem. Doubt you'll have to worry about many natural predators being born in captivity. So look forward to being gawked at by anything shorter than you for the rest of your life.
