Morfeld Wildlife Reports and Conservation is excited to participate in the Private Giraffe Owners Reunion, June 26–28, 2026. Dr. Kari Morfeld will be sharing insights on giraffe reproduction techniques, reproductive management, and current conservation efforts.

The event provides a valuable opportunity to collaborate with giraffe owners, exchange knowledge, and work together to support the long-term health and sustainability of giraffe populations. We look forward to engaging discussions and meaningful partnerships that advance giraffe care and conservation.

We love partnering with Emerald Coast Zoo and the Easoms, and are proud that Morfeld Wildlife Reproduction and Conservation has been monitoring Jojo’s hormones for several years using f***l hormone analysis. Through this long-term approach, we were able to confirm pregnancy and predict the timing of her calf, Mutumbo.

Thank you, Sheri Easom, for this great video capturing the real, unfiltered reality of giraffe management—too accurate 😂

Comment “giraffe” if you understand the struggle of trying to get an animal to do anything on your schedule.

Shoutout to Jeff and Emily Mabrey of Utah Reindeer for their pioneering work advancing assisted reproduction technologies in reindeer. Their commitment to innovation is helping push the boundaries of what’s possible in conservation and herd genetics.

We’re proud to collaborate with them on semen collection, artificial insemination, and embryo transfer— critical tools that are strengthening genetic diversity, improving herd health, and supporting the long-term sustainability of this species. Partnerships like this are how meaningful progress gets made.

Twin miracle at Red Bell Ranch 🐾

Two bongo calves—twins—were born, and from day one it took serious teamwork to give them the best possible start. The team implemented a dual-supplement approach, providing additional nutrition while keeping the calves closely bonded with their mom to ensure proper development and care.

It wasn’t easy. It required long hours, constant attention, and a deep commitment to their success—but the results speak for themselves. Both calves are now healthy, thriving, and full of life.

We’re proud to collaborate with Red Bell Ranch as a valued client of Morfeld Wildlife Reproduction and Conservation, supporting the design and ex*****on of strategic breeding programs tailored to their goals using both natural methods and advanced assisted reproductive technologies.

Big news worth celebrating 🎉
The Morfeld Wildlife Team is thrilled to congratulate Red Bell Ranch on the arrival of their bongo twins, Kristoff and Elsa!
What makes this even more remarkable—beyond twins being rare—is that both calves required early intervention to survive. The team implemented a hybrid rearing approach, carefully supplementing while still keeping them with their mother. That balance isn’t easy to get right, but it made the difference—and both calves are now thriving.
Bongos are one of the largest and most striking forest antelope, known for their rich chestnut coats and bold white stripes—but they’re also rare, shy, and incredibly difficult to breed in managed care. With fewer than 100 Eastern bongos left in the wild, every birth matters… and twins are exceptionally rare.
This isn’t just exciting—it’s a serious win for conservation 💚

Every sample tells a story.

At Morfeld Wildlife Reproduction and Conservation, f***l hormone analysis helps us understand what animals can’t tell us directly.

By analyzing hormones, we can:
* Follow estrous cycles
• Confirm pregnancies
• Detect irregularities that could impact survival

This non-invasive approach allows us to protect, support, and strengthen populations—without adding stress.
Better insight means better conservation.

Ever wonder why we collect giraffe p**p? 🦒💩

It’s called f***l hormone analysis, and it’s one of the most important tools in wildlife conservation.

By analyzing hormones in f***ls, we can:�
* Track reproductive cycles�
• Detect pregnancy�
• Monitor overall health
All without handling or stressing the animal.
Non-invasive. Data-driven. Critical for conservation.
