Zoo keepers at Chester Zoo have been getting into the Halloween spirit - creating pumpkin treats for a host of species.

This was not just a seasonal exercise as keepers used the exercise to provide the animals’ meals in imaginative and unusual ways to ensure they have to explore, think and work for their food.
