Monkeys at a Chinese zoo are cooling off with ice lollies as temperatures reach 40 degrees.
Zhengzhou Zoo hands out two to each parched primate per day, and their keeper explained how they developed a taste for the them.
"The first time they didn't dare try them until we threw some into the water," he said. "A brave one tried it and screamed how good it was, which attracted others to fight for them."
He added that the monkeys now wait patiently for the lollies, and sit in a circle around him as they're handed out.
As the temperatures soar the zoo also provides showers for elephants, and feeds other animals cooling water melon.
