     TULSA, Okla. (AP) _ Tulsa Zoo officials say a failed pregnancy
is a possible cause of death for a female giraffe. 
     Georgina (pictured) had lived at the zoo for almost 21
years before dying on Saturday. An official cause of death hasn't
yet been determined.
     The zoo says in a press release that Georgina had successfully
given birth in the past, with the most recent calf being born in
1999.
     Georgina came to the Tulsa Zoo from the Philadelphia Zoo in
1987.
     Zoo officials say they plan to bring another giraffe to Tulsa.
