Video of giraffe boarding a flight has everyone talking
Updated | By Jacaranda FM / Udesha Moodley-Judhoo
The only giraffe that we want to see on a flight is the one we are watching on the in-flight entertainment, whose name may or may not be Melman.

Emotional support animals are becoming increasingly recognised for their ability to aid people in the self-care they require to treat their mental health.
The Dotsure website says, "This specifically applies to conditions such as depression, anxiety, phobias, loneliness, and PTSD where proof exists that animal interaction has a positive impact on affected humans."
Emotional support animals aren't unusual, but most people stick with dogs and cats. A video doing the rounds on social media has people questioning if a giraffe could be considered as an emotional support animal.
The video shows a man guiding a giraffe onboard a flight. Whether the video is legitimate or AI-generated is not determined, but it has created some online chatter about emotional support animals.
Take a look at the video below from TikTok.
Social media users were quick to point out that the video was AI-generated, but that didn't stop them from having a good laugh.
"Bro gonna greet the birds through the plane’s roof😂", one person joked.
Another commented: "This looks like Noah's ark".
A third person joked: "bro tryna recreate Madagascar 2", referring to the 2008 animated movie.
