Keepers at Woburn Safari Park have been celebrating the 30th birthday of Raja the male Asian elephant.
The bull elephant, who weighs over four tonnes, has been exploring his woven fire hose presents and a big ‘30’ made from tyres.
The elephant keepers had been hard at work crafting the special birthday enrichment for Raja, stuffed full of all his favourite foods, including hay, carrots, fibre pellets and apples.
Woburn Safari Park describe Raja as a very "laid-back character" who enjoys his daily interactions with his keepers and the enrichment activities they create for him.
His daughter, Tarli, was born in 2014.
Raja arrived at Woburn Safari Park in 1997 at just three years old, alongside female Damini who also turns 30 in March.
The zoo is also offering the chance to win a VIP Elephant Encounter for two, to mark the pair's 30th birthday. You can find out more about the birthday competition here.
