Entire colony of 13 Patas monkeys trapped in their cage are killed in Woburn Safari Park blaze as roof enclosure collapses on them

An entire colony of 13 Patas monkeys were trapped in their cage and killed during a devastating blaze at a safari park - just 10 days after five animals died following a fire at London Zoo.

The fire ripped through their winter enclosure at the Woburn Safari Park for more than two hours and killed all of the Patas monkeys inside.

The building where the monkeys spend their nights in the cold winter months was virtually completely destroyed by the fire at the park in Bedfordshire.

It comes just days after blaze broke out in the animal adventure section at London Zoo on December 23, which killed a nine-year-old aardvark and four meerkats.
