Giraffe House

Giraffe House Wildlife Awareness Centre is an open-air wildlife education facility spanning 15 hectares near Stellenbosch in the Western Cape, South Africa, easily accessible from Cape Town. The centre is home to a diverse array of African animals including hand-reared giraffes, meerkats, caracals, zebras, crocodiles, porcupines, owls, and blue cranes — South Africa's national bird.
