Giraffe is Kosher

I know this may be old hat to some of our Jewish big game hunting audience, but both giraffe meat and giraffe milk were declared kosher in 2008. From the aptly named Tim Butcher in the Telegraph:

"Indeed, the giraffe is kosher for eating," Rabbi Shlomo Mahfoud, who accompanied the researchers in their work, said.

"The giraffe has all the signs of a ritually pure animal, and the milk that forms curds strengthened that."


Now all I need is a tall dairy.
