Hoping the firefighters can get the fire sorted safely and that it remains the case that no animals are hurt. Apparently a fire in the cafe area being tackled.

One of my favourite things is seeing the giraffes in the morning as I go to work.

It’s a national treasure so hope the damage is easy to fix up

My understanding is that no animals have been, but they’re (the firefighters, not the animals) still battling the fire since early this morning. Zoo closed to public today.

They'll have a good view of the action

And I secretly hope some animals escape and have a Christmas adventure in London having all kinds of japes and tomfoolery, possibly make a pigeon friend along the way, that kind of thing

Animals should be free in the wild.. Zoo is just another form of circus.

Hope they all escape

I've never been and I also hope the animals are ok.

So in the most light heart manner: have they enlisted The Elephants to squirt water on the fire?

I think there’s a place for zoos to play a vital role in preserving endangered species. But we should be far more vigilant in ensuring respectful behaviour of visitors, not goading animals or the concept of peephole viewing so less intrusive. I’m with David Attenborough, he’s far more qualified than I am and he says there’s a use for zoos. But I agree with you, not all animals and not all zoos are focused (or resourced) on the absolute care of the animal first, conservation of our wild and natural habitats is vital.

True enough.

I agree with you fundamentally that an animal is better of free but in reality if they just ran off from London zoo they'd all vanish into the ether and end up becoming under the counter specials in various markets and restaurants probably best off under the watchful eye of the keepers

The fire is out.

But there’s an aardvark still unaccounted for.

Hoping for happier news later, and that he/she is just hiding somewhere.

North Bucks

I did work experience in a Zoo you’d be amazed how many times we lost animals only for them to reappear.

We ended up losing loads of Wallabies into the wilds of North Bucks.
