Protective April the Giraffe kicks vet
There’s no question about April the Giraffe’s mothering instincts.
The 15-year-old giraffe — an internet sensation who just gave birth to her fourth calf, which more than a million people watched live online — didn’t like it when a veterinarian came too close to her new baby.
Video surveillance shows her kicking the vet not once but twice as he maneuvered around her pen at Animal Adventure Park in upstate Harpursville.
