Budget estimate

$60,000 – $250,000

The budget for this project is likely to be moderate, given the scope of the projects. The cost of supplying grass hay for the zoo and transporting giraffes will depend on various factors such as the quantity of hay required, the distance and frequency of giraffe transportation, and the mode of transportation. A rough estimate for the grass hay supply could be in the range of $50,000 to $200,000 per year, depending on the quantity and quality of the hay. The giraffe transportation cost could be in the range of $10,000 to $50,000 per year, depending on the frequency and distance of transportation. Therefore, the total budget for both projects could be in the range of $60,000 to $250,000 per year.
