Keepers at Howletts Wild Animal Park near Canterbury in Kent treated the animals to some special Halloween themed enrichment when they presented them with pumpkins filled with treats.

Neil Spooner, Animal Director said: 'It is important to provide enrichment for our animals -- it helps keep them interested and offers new challenges for them. The pumpkins were perfect because the animals had to work out how to retrieve the treats inside.'

For a close encounter like no other, Howletts Wild Animal Park allows you to walk alongside, and below, our free roaming family of amazingly agile and lively lemurs with Walking With Lemurs.
