RIP Gemina the 'crooked-necked giraffe'

Gemina the 'crooked-necked giraffe' was put down yesterday at the age of 21. Over the last two weeks she stopped eating. The zoo keepers noticed it was affecting her quality of life so they euthanized her. I was lucky enough to see her in person as she was what the Santa Barbara Zoo was known for.
