- Summary
- Pathe synopsis: We see a tiger’s footprints imprinted in snow. Half of the animals at London’s Chessington Zoo have suddenly found themselves out of their element - camels, zebras, lions - even the seals look cold and the flamingos can hardly bear to put their feet down. We go out feeding snow-bound herds through country that blizzards have rendered unrecognisable and treacherous.
