About the Exhibit:
In the 1950s, pioneering Canadian zoologist Anne Innis Dagg became the first Western scientist to study giraffes in the wild. As a young woman travelling alone to South Africa in the 1950s, Anne faced numerous challenges and adversity in completing her work, but through her passion and dedication to the pursuit of understanding these magnificent animals, she persevered. Her research has provided the foundation for 7 decades of “Giraffology,” bringing new understanding to the behaviour and morphology of giraffes and the threats that the species faces, particularly humanity’s growth and subsequent irreversible damage to the environment.
In GIRAFFE | A Heightened Experience, along with learning Anne’s story, guests will get up close and personal with this mysterious, intriguing, unique animal. Featuring artifacts and original video footage from Anne’s life and studies in South Africa, fascinating facts and interactive exhibits about giraffes, immersive displays and environments, wildlife photography by Ana Carolina Esteves Dias, and VR experiences, guests of all ages will find inspiration, hope, and play in this brand-new exhibition!
