SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA - MARCH 31: In this handout photo provided by Taronga Zoo, chimpanzees enjoy an Easter treat at Taronga Zoo on March 31, 2015 in Sydney, Australia. Taronga's Chimpanzee group got some colourful Easter challenges this week when they cracked 30 paper mache eggs carefully placed in the exhibit by keepers. Instead of chocolate, the eggs were filled with a special treat of popcorn, sultanas and pellets and then were hidden as much as possible in logs or positioned high up in the exhibit.
