Chester Zoo: Birth of rare giraffe captured on camera
A baby giraffe's dramatic entry into the world has been caught on cameras at Chester Zoo.
Rothschild's giraffe Stanley fell on to a bed of straw at the weekend after mother Orla endured a three-hour labour.
A zoo spokesman said staff were delighted as giraffes have been born out of sight of the attraction's CCTV cameras in the past.
