The Fort Worth Zoo is apologizing for a flyer that could be seen as insensitive after the death this week of a giraffe calf at the Dallas Zoo.
The flyer reads "the smaller they are, the harder you fall," and next to that is a picture of a young giraffe.
The flyer hit social media Thursday two days after the sudden death of the Dallas Zoo's popular young giraffe, Kipenzi.
The Fort Worth Zoo tweeted, "We mean no disrespect. This mailer was printed weeks ago and mailed last week."
The Dallas Zoo quickly responded and made clear there were no upset feelings about the flyer.
