Does anyone raise Giraffe's in Texas?

Anyone know what a Giraffe costs? Not to hunt, but to buy?

Call Dominique Ferraro at Zebras R Us, she is out of Canton, TX. and raises a lot of different exotic animals including Giraffe's
Her phone is (909) 762-1669
Or look her up on Facebook, she is knowledgeable about all these types of critters

There are several ranches with giraffes on them. Seen yearling males go for 25-30,000. Females of all super exotics are extremely high right now for several reasons. I've seen breeding pairs go for 125000. The Ox ranch, YO ranch, and Brian Gillroy's wildlife partners all have giraffes to name a few. Go to Facebook ( exotic trader page) and post an I want to breed giraffes thread if you are serious.

I'll tell you that it's quite a commitment. Most have tall barns for shelter since they don't fare to well in extreme cold.
