The UFG is the sixth giraffe that can be befriended. Like all other boss animals, the player is required to complete a minigame or mini-quest called a boss mission to find and befriend it for the first time, but can be found permanently in the stampede afterwards.
Appearance[]
The UFG is dark teal with a scaly light mint coloured pattern specked with a darker green on every plate. Its head is large and bulbous, giving it an alien look, and its legs are mainly teal with light grey hooves. There are two light mint-green antennae on the head. Wrapped around the UFG 's neck is a red and white scarf which circles its neck twice and hangs down on the left side of its neck.
Description[]
Nobody knows the truth about its origins, but we're pretty sure the government is behind it.
Requirements[]
- Sky Zoo upgraded to Savannah 4 or greater.
- Giraffe tamed.
- Unlock (see how to unlock boss mission here) and complete UFG boss mission (tips for completion are below). From here it can be found in Savannah permanently.
- To be found in the stampede: Ride past 2200m in Savannah.
Note: Its chance of appearing is extremely low due to it being a tier 5 animal. It will appear randomly but very rarely, and never before 2200m.
Tips for Boss Mission[]
The UFG boss mission is a slight increase in difficulty to the first two (Skelephant and Bosstrich), where the player has to jump from giraffe to giraffe to finally get to the UFG, with a wall standing between each giraffe. A hint to where the next giraffe will be positioned on the other side of the wall is to see where the lowest part of the wall is, which is where the next giraffe will be. For the final jump to the UFG, there is an extended distance between the last normal giraffe and the UFG, and there are two walls between the giraffe and the UFG. The UFG will always be positioned in the middle, so if the player aims anywhere near the middle they should be able to catch and befriend the UFG due to the large lasso size when jumping from a giraffe. It helps significantly if the player has upgraded their giraffe habitat to level 6.

Trivia[]
- The UFG is an obvious play on a UFO, or an Unidentified Flying Object.
- The description is a reference to how the government, in particular the American one, has the power to disclose and contain information about UFOs, leading many people to believe that they are government hoaxes.[1]
- In the soft launch, the description was a little different. It was "Nobody really knows what's going on here, but we're sure the government is behind it."
Notes[]
- The UFG was released in the original release, version 1.0.0, on the 22nd of June 2016, along with Savannah and all other original Savannah animals, Jungle and all original Jungle animals, and the Sky Zoo.
- The UFG's appearance changed after update 1.5.0 on the 25th of January 2017. The UFG initially had long white alien antennas sprouting from its head, but they were removed for some reason.
- This was reverted in version 1.27.0.
- What is interesting is that the Baby UFG has the two light mint-green alien antennas, reaffirming that UFG model was missing the antennas because of a bug.
