Meerkats at ZSL London Zoo began counting down to Christmas - by tearing into a unique advent calendar, gifted by zookeepers.

However, the mischievous mob ignored the festive tradition of opening a single door each day, with Frank, Dracula, Penelope, Meko and Timone choosing instead to tuck into all their treats at once.

London Zoo keeper, Martin O’Sullivan, said: “The meerkats had great fun starting the countdown to Christmas by foraging in their advent calendar for their favourite tasty crickets.

“It’s safe to say that patience isn’t a meerkat’s best quality, but who amongst us hasn’t opened a door or two a little early on their advent calendar over the years?”
