The Royal Zoological Society of Scotland’s Highland Wildlife Park is celebrating the birth of an "adorable" vicuna cria (baby vicuna).
The baby vicuna is the first one ever to be born at the park, which is located near Kingussie.
Born to parents Coco and Austria on Wednesday, October 23, 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. They are camelid species native to the Andes of South America and can be found in Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Ecuador and Peru.
