Meerkat mediums at East Sussex zoo predict Euro 2020 win for England against Germany
The animals at Drusillas Park made the prediction ahead of tonight's clash at Wembley
So who is going to win the Euro 2020 clash between England and Germany tonight (Tuesday 29th June)? A mob of meerkat mediums at an East Sussex zoo are backing the Three Lions Squad.
It's Hakuna Matata for Gareth Southgate's side after the animals at Drusillas Park in Alfriston predicted an English win.
It was decided after flags of both nations were placed in front of their food - with the meerkats dashing for dinner at the England flag.
That means it's no worries for the home team at Wembley Stadium this evening.
The activity was part of the park’s animal enrichment programme, following which the group played with a ball to let off some steam.
Enrichment is carried out within all the enclosures on a daily basis to encourage the animals to work a little harder for their food as they would in the wild, as well as providing mental stimulation.
Head Keeper at Drusillas Park, Gemma Romanis said:
“We’re all very excited to see what England can do against Germany and all of our keepers are getting behind the team and hoping they can make the quarter-finals!
"We thought what better way to support England than to treat our meerkat group to their favourite mealworms while they enjoyed some football-themed enrichment!
"There are two twin pups in the group and they thoroughly enjoyed all the activities!
“We’re all hoping that England can get a big win against Germany. Of course, we wish everyone good luck, but it would be nice to win!”
