The Santa Barbara Zoo has a very new, and a very rare resident.
A male Masai Giraffe has joined the zoo's Masai giraffe herd. The three-year-old giraffe named Theo came to Santa Barbara from the Cincinnati Zoo.
There are now four of the giraffes at the Santa Barbara Zoo. The zoo is part of a North American breeding program to support the endangered species.
There are than more than 120 Masai giraffes at 28 zoos.
