MARWELL Zoo is using the bones of dead animals to increase the public's knowledge about its living ones.

Its 'Wild about Skeletons' activities showed off numerous skulls and skeletons, enabling people to see the creatures in a different way.

Information and displays in the education centre included the National Osteoporosis Society promoting the need for humans to keep their bones healthy.

Archaeological finds, discovered in digs at Marwell, were also on show.
