Prayers for the animals of California…
As we reported, several celebs — including Kim Kardashian West, Kourtney Kardashian, and Khloe Kardashian — were forced to evacuate their houses due to wildfire that has affected areas such as Malibu, Calabasas, and Hidden Hills.

After news of the natural disaster broke out, people immediately began to worry about the different animals at attraction Malibu Wine Safaris, especially Stanley the Giraffe!
On Friday, Stanley’s official Instagram account confirmed that the tall mammal was safe and fed, and that the attraction’s management team and animal trainers “began preparing for evacuations” on Thursday night.
However, they did acknowledge that they are still searching for a “small number… of animals unaccounted for.”
They wrote:

Khloe echoed the news on her Twitter account:


Sadly, fast forward to now, it appears that the animals have NOT been evacuated.
On Sunday, comedian Whitney Cummings confirmed this when she visited Stanley at his Malibu home.

The 2 Broke Girls co-creator then SLAMS Malibu Wine Safaris for not moving the animals after allegedly telling her they would. (She also pointed out how close the fires were to Stanley’s enclosure.)

After Cummings shared these devastating posts, a social media user informed Khloe, who said she is “upset” by this development.


On Monday, Whitney went back on Instagram to acknowledge that “moving a giraffe is incredibly high risk and dangerous,” but just wants “a straight story on how Stanley was handled” because she was allegedly told conflicting information from staff.

On Tuesday, a source confirmed to TMZ that Stanley is safe, and was moved out of his enclosure after midnight on Friday. Contrary to rumors, his eyelashes were NOT burned.
Despite this news, a PETA rep says the organization is demanding that authorities check on the company’s unaccounted-for animals, and their condition.
Senior Vice President of Communications, Lisa Lange, told the site:

“It is unconscionable for any facility that keeps animals under lock and key not to have an emergency plan that allows for their immediate evacuation when one is called for.”

Meanwhile, on Monday, it appears Malibu Wine Safaris is doing damage control by posting videos of the animals getting fed:

Then this video on Sunday:

Stay safe, y’all! And let’s hope every person and animal stays safe amid the wildfires.
