      I think it's more to do with keeping the possibility of suing/charging the humans if the explanation turns out to be nothing but a tall story!

                    I like the way they keep saying allegedly so the giraffe can't sue for libel.

                          The use of "allegedly" is already a subconscious act by all SA journos.

                            Beware the drop bear...

                            I may not last forever but the mess I leave behind certainly will.
