Tourists keep making off with the 6 metre tall, anatomically correct, Lego animal's penis. So far it has been snatched four times since the model's debut in 2007.
The centre is now taking desperate steps in order to protect the giraffe's privates... they're erecting a 'metal construction' (whatever that entails).

It's a lady giraffe. It has no tail because... er... it got in a fight with a lego lion. ;)

Believe me, at the time I clipped the story it DID say penis.
The picture was the best I could find to accompany the story, but as I'm looking after a nephew that's just been released from hospital I didn't pay close attention to it.
Oh, and I accept your apology... :D,

Uhh, if you click through the original story says Tail not
Penis. Then if you look at the Pic it shows a square hole where the tail should be. Don't twist things just to get more views. - 2 years ago
