Chester Zoo announced on Tuesday morning that it would have to close for the day due to the weather.
The popular attraction made the decision after heavy snow covered the zoo overnight.
The message on the zoo’s website says: “Due to the heavy snow the zoo will be closed today (Tuesday 27 February).
