Dudley Zoo animals enjoy left over Christmas trees

Zoo keepers at Dudley have been recycling their Christmas trees by giving them to many of the animals to play with.

The trees provide enrichment opportunities for the various species as they play with the branches.

Many of the animals love Christmas trees and keepers have been adding them into the big cat, mongoose and primate enclosures.

Any leftover trees are chipped by the gardening team and used as floor covering across the site.
