Ice cream treat for apes 

Workers at a zoo in Germany have started making ice
cream for apes as a special summer treat.

At Hanover Zoo they are being given the cooling
dessert made of fruit, sunflower seeds and raisins all
frozen together in a 10-litre bucket.

A spokesperson for the zoo said: "The ice-cream is a
special treat for the apes and it also keeps them
cool. They are having a lot of fun eating it."

Zoo workers in Switzerland have discovered that bears
also have a sweet tooth and have been feeding a
specially made ice-cream to their two bears, Tuma and
Inca, who they said have taken a real liking to it.
