West with Giraffes

Very moving story, a good reminder that wild animals are not pets, and that animals are not at a lower category compared to people,  in fact they are better than us. And it's human responsibility to keep them safe in their original environment. The book also shows a little bit of how life was in US back in 1920s, with racisms, misogyny, poverty and the illusion of California as the land of honey. The beginning of the audiobook was a little tough for me as the narrator way of speaking and the narrative that keeps jumping back and forth past and present days got me lost in the story. It was o my after reading the first 20% that I was able to start listening again.
