At least they didn't paint a lion stalking them...

What a stupid giraffe. It doesn't even know that a picture isn't real.

Now, I'm off to NSFW for some fapping.

I hate it when sites don't give photographers credit where credit is due.

Reminds me of the penguin movie where the little captured guy kept banging into the wintery scene that was painted on the wall. That is so sad! I cried.

"Awww, look at the giraffe! It's so cute!"

Yeah, he's gotta be lonely here though, sitting in a zoo, thousands of miles away from his home in a climate that's much colder than what he's used to. He'll probably never see another giraffe again for the rest of his life. Really, with the number of visitors here, I'm surprised the zoo can even afford to feed him.

It took me a while to realize those were real giraffes. I hope I wasn't the only one...

Well, it beats the standard concrete. What's your suggestion for a motive?

Animals should not be kept in captivity for no other reason but to amuse children.

This may just be the old mammal building at the Calgary Zoo (torn down)

I don't see what's so sad, except that this might be a museum and not a zoo, and those giraffes were dead and stuffed a long time ago.

geraffes are so dumb.

EDIT: sorry, the only reason i say this is that this geraffe in this picture is trying to eat a painting. i should say that this one particular geraffe is dumb.

EDIT: hey asshats quit downvoting me i am not the one who tried to eat the wall.

EDIT: hey before you hit that down arrow why don't you ask yourself why you can't take a joke you losers. jesus the pc crap has extended to *long horses*? because that is all those things are, and no one was bawling when that chimp got shot for eating that lady's face. so are you racist for *long horses* over gorillas? hippocrites.

EDIT: is it a bunch of peta lamebrains doing this? did my one little joke hit some kind of tree-hugger blog or some shit? i have never so much as even spit on a geraffe! wtf? i ate lion one time, it was in a burger; i had alligator, and something they told me was eagle but i'm positive it was just chicken. whatever anyone is saying about me and geraffes is not even true. but go on farteaters, downvote away. it shows how stupid you are.

EDIT: spelling.

EDIT: this is such shit. i have never received as much as one single downvote in my *life* and you peckers are jumping on this stupid geraffe-loving bandwagon. *that is a dumb goddamn wall-licking geraffe* and that is all. i'm not going to apologize to you idiots any more.

EDIT: you know, now my feelings are hurt. the amount of downvotes piled on me is just excessive. god for-fucking-bid i had commented on a post about an antteater, i would be at -1000 by now. you people are horrible.
