Ireland’s wildest visitor attraction has celebrated its 40th birthday by announcing the birth of a giraffe whose great great grandmother was one of the first animals to arrive in the park.
Fota Wildlife Park in Cork opened its doors to the public on June 23, 1983, and marked the milestone on Friday by celebrating its remarkable contribution to conservation, education, research, and breeding of endangered animals.
