Keepers at ZSL London Zoo created their very own ‘pelican crossing’ recently - as our pictures show

Seven eastern white pelicans, each weighing around 10kg, were carried across the Zoo to their summer watering hole.
The birds were moved from their usual home because the severe cold weather kept freezing their pond.
Zookeepers are now confident that temperatures are on the up and that the pelicans will soon be basking in the sunshine – you heard it here first!
With fast track and family saver tickets, the quickest and cheapest way for your family to get into ZSL London Zoo is by booking online in advance.
