On behalf of the Philadelphia Zoo, I want to thank all who have taken the time and energy to express their condolences on the loss of Puzzles, our reticulated giraffe. I cannot tell you how much it touches the hearts of everyone here when we receive a letter or a card or an e-mail from people who, over the years, have made that kind of connection with our animals and continue to do so through their visits to the Zoo. We will certainly keep all of you posted on any future developments involving Twigga, our other older giraffe, as well as always invite you to see and meet our new babies by checking out our website or by visiting the Zoo. Until then, I look forward to seeing you in the Garden and, once again, thank you for your well wishes.

Vik Dewan
