Item #: SCP-XXX
Object Class: Keter
Threat Level: Yellow
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-X is currently held in an external enclosure at Site-40, With the appropriate dimensions for its species. SCP-X is to be feed three (3) times a day with fruit hay and water. No Personal intending to harm SCP-X or remove it from its containment is allowed to enter the enclosure
Attempts to relocate SCP-X into a high-security cell inside Site-40 are still ongoing.
Description: SCP-X is an adult female Giraffa camelopardalis (True Giraffe) believed to be able to hear and understand the thoughts of all humans in a ten (10) meter radius1 as well as being invulnerable conventional forms of weaponry.
SCP-X will regularly attempt to escape containment by kicking down the supports of the fences, so far no attempt to stop this behavior has proven successful.
Despite its peaceful demeanor when not doing so, it has consistently terminated all staff attempting to harm it, including subverting all attempts to capture it.
Discovery: SCP-X came to Foundation attention due to news reports of a "Genius Giraffe" in the ████ Zoo, about a calf receiving CT brain scans after attempting several escapes. Foundation assets captured the animal and covered up all reports on the anomaly.
Addendum: The following is a series of E-mails exchanged between the Chief of Site-security and the Ethics Committee:

Re: SCP-X
I am of the strong opinion that relocating the animal is no longer worth it: the risks to the animal's mental health have already made me question the idea, but the constant loss of life from our continued attempts would even be the last straw if we switched to D-Class now!

Re: SCP-X
The fence can't hold it forever and it doesn't just kill when we try to relocate it, but also when they try to recontain it! My men are dropping like flies to a god-damn giraffe while you ask me not to put it somewhere it can't escape, while I am wondering how they have such trouble with it if they managed before, I'm even more curious how you intend to minimize the slaughter?

Re: SCP-X
I assume the animal was traumatized in initial containment, causing it to become more paranoid and aggressive when defending itself, hence why it is so much more deadly now. As for new containment procedures: better fences are my best bet. I'll write Containment Staff about it later.

Re: SCP-X
Don't try it: since it's invulnerable it can just keep hitting the fence until it breaks through even the best material.

Re: SCP-X
…Did you ever think a giraffe could cause such a headache? I'll have to request for it to be released into the wild.

Re: SCP-X
Denied without a vote: I don't care how harmless it appears to be or how difficult containment is by contrast! The C stands for Contain, so we contain all anomalies and don't consider if it's worth it first
