The Ice-Cream Diet

The recent heat wave here in Barcelona has been suffocating, not just for people, but animals too. To combat this, the animal carers of the Barcelona Zoo had come up with an excellent remedy, feeding the animals with ice-cream, catered to the taste of each different species.

The bears are getting fish, crabs frozen inside huge ice cubes, more like blocks, and yogurt. The primates extra vitamins, fruit and vegetable in ice blocks too, to play with before getting to the goodies inside, and elephants are given water melon and carrots also frozen into the ice blocks. They took care to chain the melon blocks to prevent the elephants picking them up with their trunks and throwing them at people!
