A yak born at a UK zoo is to be named after a Harry Potter character.
The calf, born to mother Hermione and father Voldemort at ZSL Whipsnade Zoo last Thursday, will be named following its first health check when vets will be able to determine its sex.
Team leader Donovan Glyn said it is “magical” to share the news about the newest arrival, adding: “The calf is doing really well, sticking close to mum while they are exploring the herd’s paddock together.
The zoo is currently closed due to the coronavirus pandemic.
