ZOOKEEPERS at Colchester Zoo are celebrating the birth of a new aardvark baby.
The arrival of the new baby for mum and dad Oq and Adela is the sixth for the zoo's breeding group, making it one of the most successful in Europe.
The baby is yet to be named as it will be a number of months before staff will be able to tell if its a boy or a girl.
