A playful dolphin was spotted off the coast of Kinsale, County Cork sparking questions about whether it is the famous Dingle dolphin Fungie.
The video was shared online by Ocean Research & Conservation Association Ireland (ORCAIreland) after spotting the bottlenose mammal, which they say has been in the area for the past five days.
ORCA Ireland says that the dolphin is 9ft and 2.7m and was seen chasing boats by the Old Head of Kinsale.
