One of the world's most endangered animals has been introduced for the first time at Fota Wildlife Park.

Jamil is a two-year-old Indian Rhino, who was been brought to Cork from Whipsnade Zoo near London.

He has only been in his new surroundings for the last fortnight.

And he is one of the stars of the park's new Asian Sanctuary, which opens to the public tomorrow.

There are only about 3,300 of his species left in the wild, and is part of a European Zoo Association breeding prgorame.

Newstalk Lunchtime presenter Jonathan Healy got a sneak preview today.

He caught up with Sean McKeown, director of Fota, who told us all about Jamil.
