Romance is in the air at Blackpool Zoo. Zookeepers say since arriving from the Netherlands in the summer, critically endangered Bornean orangutan Kawan is proving to be a hit with the ladies. It's hoped interest from Cherie and two others will lead to a baby boom! #HeartNews

📸 Keeper Eleanor

We are deeply saddened to learn about the death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth.
She will be greatly missed and the impact her reign has had will not be forgotten.
Her life has been dedicated to serving this nation, and the people within it.
May she rest in peace.

To all the parents out there, you made it! 🙌
