Prairie Dogs come out to play
Bristol Zoo
The first of this year's prairie dog pups have come out to play in the sunshine at Bristol Zoo Gardens this week.
Prairie dogs are born in underground dens in April and May and do not appear above ground until their eyes open at around five weeks old.
The first four pups have now emerged and are already proving a hit with visitors as they can often be seen playing near their burrows. Keepers are expecting more prairie dog babies to emerge from their burrows over the coming weeks.
The pups are the latest in a host of recent arrivals at the zoo. Earlier this year two meerkat babies were born, as well as a howler monkey, a saki monkey and a tiny owl monkey.
Spring and summer is a popular time of year for animal births at the zoo, and the warmer weather means youngsters can often be spotted exploring their new surroundings.
