Video shows an adorable baby camel, born on April 11, running around in her paddock.

The fluffy camel calf, named Sally, was born to 12-year-old mum Izzy and four-year-old dad Oakley after a 13-month pregnancy. Camel Keeper George Spooner said that Sally began walking, although she was quite wobbly, within hours of being born at Whipsnade Zoo in Bedfordshire.
