Description

A trip to Chester Zoo. Two small boys are seen walking round the zoo with their family and looking at the animals. There are scenes of the zoo and of the family walking around amongst the other visitors. We see exotic birds, gorillas, orang-utans, camels, giraffes, lionesses, sea lions, and polar bears. We then see scenes from a farm. A cat toys with a mouse before the mouse escapes and the cat chases it. We then see a farmer letting cows out of the field and and a small boy in a field with some hens. We see a mother and her two children in a field with sheep and cows, and then the children with a horse. The children play with the horse and sit a cat on its back. We then see more horses with their foals, one of the horses feeds her foal.
