Plate 8: Irish Elk group |
|
| A monarch-of-the-glen style shot of the Irish Elk group, which is well off to the side and a bit embarrassed-looking. At one time their antlers were genuine Irish Elk fossil antlers, which have since been replaced with plaster and knocked about by vandals.That hedge in the left background conceals the megatherium (giant sloth), locked in a compound that used to be the children's zoo. I tried to take a photo of it through the fence but thus far none have come out. |
