....and relax, chilled out Dennis the Koala strikes a relaxed pose at Longleat
As Brits continue to struggle with the effects of lockdown, one creature has been kicking back and letting the pandemic pass him by.
Dennis, a male southern koala who lives at Longleat in Wiltshire, has continued to go about his daily business as though nothing has changed.
His routine includes sleeping for up to 22 hours a day, shouting at his love rival and gorging on eucalyptus leaves.
His keepers say he is a 'shining example' of how to deal with the coronavirus pandemic.
Social distancing also comes naturally to him as koalas only come together briefly in order to mate.
