Donna the elephant goes bananas for Queen at Whipsnade Zoo

The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh tried their hand at zoo keeping as they fed bananas to an elephant at Whipsnade Zoo.

The seven-year-old elephant, named Donna, whipped her favourite treat from the royal couple's hands at the official opening of the Bedfordshire attraction's new £2 million centre for elephant care on Tuesday 11 April.

The new facility will care for a full herd of nine Asian elephants, which are considered endangered due to habitat loss, poaching and human conflict.
