Zoo in England now gives Lions discarded Christmas trees as toys to play with and chew on

If you're not sure what to do with your leftover Christmas tree then a zoo in England has come up with a unique solution - throw them to the lions.
The big cats at Cambridgeshire Zoo are being given discarded Christmas trees as toys to play with and chew on.

 A zoo in England has come up with a solution to your unwanted Christmas tree - throw it to the lions.

According to zookeepers, the cut trees are like 'catnip' to the animals and provide them with hours of fun.
The lions enjoying biting on the trunks of the trees as well as ripping apart the branches.
And now the zoo is urging families to drop off their used Christmas trees to provide the animals with new toys for the new year.
Kim Simmons, a director at the zoo said: 'We've already had quite a few trees coming in, which are giving the lions hours of fun.'
It is thought that the lions love playing with the trees as they contain catnip, sometimes known as catmint, a plant of the mint family, which can cause many cats euphoria.
