Poor giraffe, hopefully no broken glass got in it's eyes.

Some people are idiots. They had one here where they let a monkey in the car and it bit and then the people sued the zoo.

Almost as stupid as the people who get out of their cars to take pictures in the lions section!

They tell you to keep car windows closed anyway, so what was she playing at.
I do despair of some folk.

I would. She's 'having a giraffe'

I think people are not aware of the strength of some animals. I certainly wouldn't let it put it's head through the open window.

Re: How not to behave in a Safari Park

My experience of safari parks, is that they instruct you to keep your windows closed. It is a bit late to close the window when an animal has put it's head through it.
If this was the case here I think the car owner should be expected to pay any vet bills for the giraffe!

STUPID PEOPLE!
