- Published
Halloween is here and the animals at Chester Zoo in Cheshire have got their pumpkin treats. This Galapagos tortoise seems peckish!
And this black rhino is getting stuck in!
This red panda is taking things a bit slower looking curiously at the carved creation. The bamboo hairdo is a nice addition!
Rather than a scary face, a special spider carving has been made here, though the Monserrat tarantula might be getting a little confused...
Boo! This dwarf mongoose has realised that pumpkins are ideal for hide and seek.
And the underwater creatures aren't being left out. Here are banggai cardinal fish and long-spined sea urchins swimming alongside their pumpkins.
But it's not just Chester Zoo! Whipsnade Zoo has also been getting their animals into the Halloween spirit. Although this chimp looks like a witch's hat might cheer him up!
This ring-tailed lemur explores his orange treat by poking its eye.
This red river hog tucks into his pumpkin's brain. It's about eating not scaring for some!
This otter might not seem excited but perhaps it's plotting who to terrify this evening...
This meerkat takes a peek around to make sure no one is about to steal his pumpkin treat.
