A LOST wild otter cub who baffled rescuers after he was found inside a flamingo habitat at a zoo has been rehomed in the Westcountry.

Lost otter cub found snoring with the flamingos

The tiny cub now affectionately named Mingo was found alone, weighing just 800 grams (28oz) and only a few months old.

He gave staff at Colchester Zoo (CZS), in Essex, a surprise when they found him 'snoring' in the flamingo enclosure.

Mingo was taken to Wildlives Rescue in Colchester as he was without his mum and in distress before finding a home at the UK Wild Otter Trust in North Devon.
