Monday 28 June 2010

Thousands of visitors enjoyed a warm sunny evening at ZSL Whipsnade Zoo Nights, taking advantage of both the weather and the one night of the year the zoo opens late in the evening.

Animal demonstrations, including the popular Elephantastic! , the Birds of the World and the Sealion Splash drew huge crowds.

There was plenty more to entertain with feeds and talks at the penguins, wild boar, moose and giraffes.
