The calendar reads October 30, but that didn’t stop some playful animals at Assiniboine Park Zoo from getting into the Halloween spirit a wee bit early.
The zoo released a series of photos on Wednesday, showing how some of its animals are marking the occasion.
Hudson the polar bear had a pumpkin inside of his cage. And while he didn’t exactly carve out a design, it appears he enjoyed the unfamiliar object anyway.
