A tasty dish of festive favourites, Brussels sprouts, was dished out to residents at Pets’ Corner in Hazlehead Park in Aberdeen.
The pre-Christmas banquet was dished up to Lou Lou and Gethin the pygmy goats and, despite the divisive vegetable being despised by many, they are said to have enjoyed their treat.
Council operational convener John Wheeler said: “A lot of people don’t like Brussels sprouts but Lou Lou and Gethin welcomed their early Christmas dinner and I’m sure would have had seconds if there had been extra.
“We look forward to welcoming lots of people, young and old, to Pets’ Corner over the festive period as it’ll be open most days.”
Meerkats Dee, Don and Den have proved a popular attraction at the facility, which had a ÂŁ750,000 renovation and expansion including a larger area for the fish and reptiles, and the creation of a new education room.
