I LOVED this picture of Tammy the tree-climbing anteater who is to be given her own minder during a series of events at London Zoo this summer.
The 12-year-old anteater is famed for being very friendly, but her naturally poor eyesight means zookeepers will have to help Tammy steer clear of visitors in the free-roaming exhibit.
