Geoffrey the Giraffe may be out of a job since Toys R Us closed its doors for good last week, but that doesn't mean the beloved mascot isn't in high demand.
The San Antonio Zoo posted a video to its YouTube channel Friday offering Geoffrey a gig as an ambassador for giraffe conservation.
"We are passionate about securing a future for wildlife, and we'd like to secure a future for Geoffrey," a zoo official says in the video.
The zoo has also kicked off a GoFundMe campaign to raise money for giraffe conservation. It hopes to catch the eye of the owners of Toys R Us and persuade them to donate "the use of their most recognizable intellectual property," according to the campaign's page.
Friday was the last day of business for 700 Toys R Us stores in the U.S. The massive chain that has dazzled children for seven decades began liquidation in March after filing for bankruptcy last year.
The chain posted a touching final message on its website ahead of the last day of business: "Promise us just this one thing: Don't ever grow up. Play on!"
