The sun is blazing and temperatures are sizzling, but thanks to dedicated Zoo keepers the animals at Perth Zoo are chilling!

The Zoo’s hard-working staff have some cool tricks up their sleeve to help everyone stay refreshed.
 
The Little Penguins and Asian Small-clawed Otters have been making a splash, enjoying seafood treats in their aquatic habitats!

Meanwhile Memphis the Southern White Rhinoceros has been wallowing about in his mud pool – keeping him fresh and comfy, and providing excellent protection from the baking sun.

 
 
As Perth Zoo species kick back and relax in the mud bath or dine on frosty food, animal lovers can use hot weather enrichment activities to help their pets beat the heat at home!
 
With more hot weather on the horizon, frozen treats, cold pools, shade, and even chilling toys in the fridge can help your furry friends keep their cool.
