A year in and the novelty of the Zoom call has well and truly worn off.

Whether you use it for work, school or for Friday evening catch up with friends, you've probably run through all the gags of funny backgrounds and filters.

But now, there's a very cool way of adding a bit of craic into your chats and it involves Ireland's cutest pig.

Emilia is a Juliana pig who lives in the Burren Nature Sanctuary in Kinvara.

Usually, she enjoys taking visitors out on her Fairy Pig Walks but with the sanctuary closed until further notice, she's gotten a little bit lonely.

Mary Bermingham from the Burren Nature Sanctuary joined Dermot and Dave to explain how they've introduced Zoom calls for Emilia to cheer her up, and raise some much needed funds for the work they do there.
