A Texas family got a brief scare when a nibble from a giraffe turned a 2-year-old's safari visit into an airborne adventure. Paisley Toten was in the open bed of a pickup truck on June 1, 2024, when her family drove through the Fossil Rim Wildlife Center. The family stopped to feed a giraffe when it grabbed Paisley’s shirt with its mouth and lifted her several feet. Paisley’s mother shouted, prompting the giraffe to drop the toddler into her arms unhurt.
