Shepreth Wildlife Park in Cambridgeshire welcomed four newborn capybara pups, born overnight on 15 October to mother Pepita. The park plans to invite the public to help choose their names once their genders are known.
Dexter Mathurine, known as Dexter the Pigeon Guy, from Southampton, helps pigeons that have become tangled in hair, thread or twine.
