Following the news that the IUCN (the International Union for the Conservation of Nature) has declared Northern giraffes as 'endangered', Chester Zoo's Conservation Officer, Scott Wilson, comments: "It is always sad to see another species join the 'red list' but this status will have a knock-on effect in terms of awareness and hopefully highlight to the world that this species is in serious danger of extinction. Several conservation projects have been and will continue to work tirelessly to help this magnificent species."
