The endangered Jackson's chameleon, called Lola, has been keeping a close eye on her week-old youngsters.

The babies are all healthy and spending quality time with Lola, who has been at Wild Zoological Park at Halfpenny Green, in Bobbington, for a year.

Staff at the attraction are waiting to see if Lola will give birth to any more babies – so more excitement could be on the way.

The park is split into four different regions including Africa, Asia, Australia and America.

Visitors are given the chance to walk through enclosures alongside wallabies and lemurs along with the opportunity to see live shows every day, which feature free-flying birds, parrots and other birds of prey.

The zoo's Christmas winter wonderland is due to take place on December 23.

Ticket prices to visit the park start from £4.
