Zoo Star Animals

In Scotland, the Norwegian Royal Guard regularly visits the Colonel, Sir Nils Olav. Nils Olav is no simple lord, he is a penguin who lives in the Edinburgh Zoological Park. Kandula, the talented elephant at the Washington Zoo, manages to pick fruit from the trees by hoisting himself up on a stool of his own improvisation.

Eora, the baby Koala at the Beauval zoo, receives the most attentive care: she feeds on a eucalyptus sent specially from England. Such a picky eater !
Like the star animals above, others have also become the emblems of the zoos where they live. "Zoo Star Animals" takes us to meet these very unusual celebrities.
