The Puck Fair goat has been placed back in its cage.
Known as 'King Puck', the animal was released from the cage yesterday on advice from a vet.
It followed concerns from the public in relation to the hot weather and animal welfare concerns.
Organisers of the festival in Killorglin in Kerry say following veterinary checks and a clean bill of health, King Puck was re-instated on the stand last night once temperatures dropped.
They say his hourly checks continue.
Today will also see the close of the three-day festival and the formal dethronement of the King Puck.
