Fans of April the Giraffe have been waiting for this moment for SO long!
On Saturday, the beautiful creature finally went into labor and by early this morning, she had delivered a not-so-tiny calf! Yay!!!

As we’ve previously reported, the pregnant giraffe made headlines when the world became fascinated by her long pregnancy and false labor. When was she going to give birth already??
Well, we couldn’t be happier for April and the new addition she welcomed today.
Ch-ch-check out the live stream of April and her new calf right now, just minutes after the birth (below)!!!
Awww!!!!
And here’s a clip of the actual moment of birth itself — which is pretty wild (below)!!!
The beauty of nature, right?!
Seems like the Internet was pretty happy about it too (below):
