This unique footage gives a fascinating view of a sun bear lapping up smashed avocado in Australia.

The animal could be seen using its tongue to reach the fruit off a container in Perth Zoo on April 19.

Sun bears are known for their remarkably long tongues, adept at extracting morsels from tree logs and crevices, and exhibit a natural proclivity for foraging.

Leveraging this innate behaviour, the zookeepers built a specialised feeder to facilitate their instinctive feeding habits.

A spokesman for the Perth Zoo said the zoo aims to ensure the physical and mental well-being of its animal residents and enrich their daily lives with opportunities for naturalistic behaviours.
