Recently, a video of a giraffe went viral because it was kept in a house in the DHA area of Karachi. This came as a surprise to the nation because it is very unusual to keep a wildl animal like the giraffe at home that too as a domestic pet!
Social media quickly became abuzz with the giraffe becoming a trending topic. People expressed their disappointment and disapproval of keeping the giraffe as a domestic pet especially because it belongs in the wild.
Here’s what’s going on on Twitter:
Shaniera Akram expressed extreme disbelief upon seeing the viral video of the giraffe.
Ali Gul Pir informed Twitter that the very same house had been issued a warning last year also. Unfortunately and quiet apparently there was no progress.
Reportedly the Sindh Wildlife team visited the premises with a message of awareness and requested the animal to be shifted outside of the residential area. Here’s more on what happened:
Fuel to the fire was added just when another Twitter user decided to share a video clip of a lion in a car near the Y Block Petrol pump in the DHA Lahore area.
