The animals in Fota Wildlife Park represent all of Earth's continents and ecosystems. The Park is set on 70 acres on the scenic Fota Island in the heart of Cork Harbour only 15 minutes from Cork City. Here you can come face to face with free roaming animals & birds from all parts of the world.
In addition to the wonderful array of free roaming animals, visitors also have the opportunity to see highly endangered species such as the Rothschild giraffe, European Bison, Lion Tailed Macaque and Scimitar Horned Oryx, most of them without the obstacle of fenced-in exhibits.

The machine is located in the gift shop near the entrance to the park. Designs are:
1) Cheetah on top of name
2) Giraffe head
3) 'My Lucky Penny', Shamrock
4) Zebra.

May 18th, 2022: I visited the park 30 Mins before closing. The park closes the gate at 4:30pm. I was able to walk in and by chance find someone to help press the coins. They came out very well, same 4 images as above-mentioned. RTS
