Highland Wildlife Park celebrates birth of first ever baby vicuna

The Royal Zoological Society of Scotland’s (RZSS) Highland Wildlife Park is celebrating the birth of an adorable vicuna cria (the term for baby vicunas, llamas, alpacas, and guanacos) – the first one ever to be born at the park.
Born to parents Coco and Austria on Wednesday 23 October, keepers at the wildlife conservation charity say the female youngster is doing well and will be named soon. Visitors will be able to spot her exploring the drive-through reserve with mum close by.
A small herd of five vicuna live at the park – Juanita, Ozzy, Austria, Coco and their new baby. Members of the public can adopt the park’s tiny new arrival at rzss.org.uk/support/adopt
