What's cuter than a baby giraffe? 

A baby giraffe in adorable custom-made leg braces, of course.😉 

🦒 The backstory: Msituni the giraffe was born at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park with her front legs bending the wrong way. 

• Afraid the calf may die if not treated immediately, her zookeepers called on Ara Mirzaian, a brace specialist who's generally used to treating athletes that are... well... human. 

🩺🥼 Try this on Grey's Anatomy... "It was pretty surreal when I first heard about it," Ara said of his newest patient. "Of course, all I did was go online and study giraffes for like 24/7 until we got out here."

• After a few failed tries, Ara successfully fitted Msituni's custom carbon graphite braces, and the giraffe was soon up and walking on her own. 
• The braces completely healed Msituni's condition in only ten days, and the grateful giraffe was finally able to join the other members of her herd in the zoo's habitat.

💬 What he's saying: "It was the coolest thing to see an animal like that walk in a brace," shared Ara. "It feels good to know we saved a giraffe's life."
