NOT feeling hot hot hot - zoo animals cool off during heatwave

As temperatures soar towards record levels it is all hands to the pump to keep the animals cool at Blackpool Zoo.



From the largest residents, the 7,650lb Asian elephants, down to some of the smallest, the 5lb ring-tailed lemurs, and everything in between, keepers have been coming up with ingenious ways to help the animals enjoy the heatwave.



This includes the sea lions chowing down on sprats on ice and the lemurs getting to grips with citrus based frozen delights.
