LITCHFIELD PARK, Ariz. A Valley wildlife conservationist is joining the effort to save stranded giraffes in Kenya, as flood waters cut them off from their herd and available food sources.
Kristy Morcom, who works with Wildlife World Zoo, Aquarium and Safari Park in Litchfield Park, will be making the trek overseas to do what she can to help save the giraffes.
