April the very pregnant giraffe at Animal Adventure Park in New York is all the talk on social media. When will she give birth? Where's the live feed? How can you watch April? Is April still pregnant? 

Yes, April is still pregnant with her 4th calf, no surprise there. But there is some big news about her live feed. It has a new sponsor. 

The live feed was previously sponsored by Mazuri, an exotic animal nutrition company. When that sponsorship contract ran out, Animal Adventure Park was on the hunt for a new sponsor for their feed. 

Well, now April is singing "I don't wanna grow up, I'm a Toys 'R' Us kid," because the toy giant just signed up to be the official feed sponsor. Just before noon on Wednesday, the blue logo with Geoffrey the giraffe popped up on the feed in the spot where the Mazuri logo used to live.

Let's be honest, maybe the calf is singing, "I don't wanna come out, I'm a Toys 'R' Us kid," since he or she has yet to make an appearance. Or better yet, maybe if the calf is a boy, his name will be "Geoffrey."
