YOU MIGHT see animals cooling off in the shade or splashing about in water when the sun is out, but not so for a group of lemurs at Cotswold Wildlife Park in Burford.

They’d rather slurp on a fruit ice lolly or two, as pictured here on Wednesday.

Squirrel Monkeys were also among the animals enjoying the cold fruit refreshments.

The park has conservation projects for crowned sifaka and greater bamboo lemurs, which are two of the most endangered primate species in the world.
