A Kent wildlife park has welcomed a popular new arrival.

Clyde, a Bactrian camel, has moved on to the Asian experience - part of the safari route at the 600-acre Port Lympne Reserve in Hythe.

His new home features a yard and stable as well as a large paddock which means he is able to roam around whenever he feels like it.

Although he was quite shy to begin with, Clyde is said to have settled into his new home very well with his favourite times of the day quickly becoming his meal times.

His keepers say that although Clyde loves his regular meals, he also enjoys grazing on ash and goat willow trees as well as the occasional carrot he is given as treat.

Now he is feeling at home, Clyde can be seen by visitors on the safari experience and is becoming a popular new arrival with his neighbours, the takin - a type of goat-antelope.

He will soon be joined by two female camel companions.

Port Lympne Reserve and Howletts Wild Animal Park both work with conservation charity The Aspinall Foundation to save rare and endangered species in the UK and overseas.
