IT will be a Father's Day to remember across the animal kingdom as Marwell Zoo welcomed a string of babies to the world.
Lemurs, meerkats and mongooses were among the arrivals at the Owslebury park in time for today's celebrations.
Mr Breeze, a black and white ruffled lemur, was the latest to become a father with the birth of his twins (below).
The pair, a boy and a girl, will help conserve a critically endangered species.
Claire Mound, team leader of primates and small mammals, said: “Mr Breeze and his partner have been fantastic parents to the babies.
"Over the next few weeks we are looking forward to watching the twins develop and begin to explore their surroundings.
"Both of the babies have huge personalities which we are sure will capture the hearts of many of our guests and keep mum and dad busy."

Arthur the silvery marmoset (above) is also caring for twins, while Jumu the yellow mongoose is looking after three lively pups. Meanwhile, Choggy the meerkat has four to contend with.
Marwell is running a competition to name the lemur babies. Entrants can choose from Misangodina, Fotaka or Avandra for the boy, while the female options are Kotroka, Fotsy and Volana.
Voters could win a family ticket to Marwell's Sunset Party in the Park on Friday, or general admission on another day.
