It’s all change for some of the furriest mammals at the park as the keepers race to get them into their new home in time for Christmas. While the builders are converting an old enclosure, it’s the keepers’ job to get everyone ready for the big move, but working with animals is never simple: the chipmunks need to put on weight before they make the move, and the stubborn cavy are reluctant to move house at all! As with any Christmas gathering, there are difficult dynamics that will need managing, such as how the small furry animals will get on with the larger, spikier porcupines?

In a magical moment, Jean Johansson gives the lions their very own Christmas tree, and Kate has an extremely large present for the rhinos. And like a wintry scene from Narnia, Jean hears the wolf pack howl, and Kate prepares the park’s tortoises for their hibernation away from the chill.
