There's sNOw news like snow news

News of our beloved animal friends snow antics is coming to us in a veritable flurry, so time for an update;



Twycross Zoo have reported that their elephants are in the midst of a snow dance performance possibly hoping for sunnier weather soon.





London Penguins are said to be "baffled by white flakes in the sky" but later "proved their mettle and ventured outdoors to inspect a scene they had never seen before – snow."



In Bristol the lion-tailed macaque monkeys have been happily playing outside in the snow, enjoying a light hearted snowball fight. Allegations that they were not monkeys but rather UWE students who had broken in during their day off has been strongly denied by zoo officials.

It's panda-monium out there!!



It's not only us mere humans which are enjoying the snow our animal friends are having the time of their lives too.

The Austrian times reports this heart-warming tale;

There's only one word for it when this young cub got sight of his first ever snow - panda-monium.

Giant panda cub Fu Long was clearly delighted to be frolicking with his proud mum at Vienna's Schönbrunn zoo as heavy snow covered the whole of Europe.

And 18-month-old Fu Long really got a taste for snow - gobbling down mouthfuls of the stuff as if it was ice cream, said his keepers at the Austrian zoo.
