Clodagh, a two-month old giraffe calf at Fota Wildlife Park.
Clodagh recently joined the rest of the herd for the first time in the African savannah having recovered from a broken leg after birth.
Born on the 22nd Jun to mother Aoife and father Walder, the calf suffered a broken leg in the first few hours after birth and had to spend six weeks with the leg in a cast.
The arrival of Clodagh brings the Rothschild giraffe herd at Fota to 12.
