The Dickerson Park Zoo has new babies.  A baby giraffe and three new baby cheetahs!

The new little girl giraffe has been named Gelner, and is the offspring of zoo favorite Emma.

“Gelner” has been named after past “Friends of the Zoo” President, Mark Gelner.

If you are going to the Dickerson Park Zoo today, don’t expect to see the new babies.  The giraffe building is closed to the public for now as Gelner and Mama Emma continue to bond.

The three new cheetah cubs that were born November 16, are also off limits at this time.

The good news,  you could possibly name the 2 girls and one boy cheetah cubs, a contest will begin the first week of January!
