Edinburgh Zoo launch EGG-citing Easter events
Volunteers at the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland (RZSS) have celebrated the launch of Easter events at Edinburgh Zoo by making enrichment filled with tasty treats, like apple and bamboo, for two of the wildlife conservation charity’s red pandas, Kevyn and Kitty.
Visitors to the zoo in April will be able to enjoy a delicious two-course roast dinner served in the Mansion House, explore a Top Trumps Easter Hunt trail and take part in bestiary painting workshops with natural history artists Rebecca Jewell and Sandy Ross-Sykes.
Easter events will run on select days from Saturday 1 April until Wednesday 19 April. Tickets and more information about each event is available at edinburghzoo.org.uk/events
