'We're used to getting calls where farm animals wash up or a dog, a seal or anything like that, but this is an unusual one.
'It'd be nice to get to the bottom of it and know exactly what it is and where it may have come from.'
Mr Coote has been taking care of the arm after it was released by Gardai. After police determined that the remains were not human, the handed it back to the council.
Mr Coote says he is currently storing the gorilla arm in his freezer.
Clare County Council has made an appeal for information as to where the gorilla limb may have originated from.
