Edinburgh Zoo has shared photos of the animals in its care this Christmas time.

The Royal Zoological Society of Scotland (RZSS) “spoils” the animals with food dressed up as gifts. The animals are not given any more food than usual, it is just dressed up differently.

Keepers at the wildlife conservation charity made personalised stockings for some species, including pygmy goats, Fergus the palm civet, and the zoo’s newest residents, a herd of alpacas named Galaxy, Humbug and Bon Bon. 

Edinburgh Zoo is open from Boxing Day onwards. Tickets can be booked online in advance at a discounted rate edinburghzoo.org.uk/tickets.
