'My baby was killed in giraffe attack that left me paralysed as I shielded kids from charging beast – it still haunts me'
She worked in the family nature training business as a marine facilitator, student mentor and was an aspiring birth doula, and lived a short walk away from her family.
“I saw a male and female giraffe in the distance; I knew she had recently had a calf but I couldn’t see it with her. "I saw Kaia’s chest move up and down, I heard Kayden screaming, I remember thinking: ‘they’re both alive’ and I passed out again."Nicole later learned that her brother had heard her screams for help and had fired a gun into the sand to scare the giraffe off.
Nicole said: "I kept asking for news about the children, and everyone kept telling me that Kayden was alright.“I asked them, ‘what about Kaia’, and they said they would tell me as soon as they knew anything when I was out of surgery but I just knew in that moment that she was gone.“From that point I have been in survival mode, and I probably will be for the rest of my life."
Nicole spent 23 days in hospital, including 16 days in intensive care, and faces months of rehab ahead of her. As well as being left paralysed, she suffered multiple fractured ribs and damage to her internal organs.
