Meet the marsupials who don't mind if it's blowing a blizzard.

The 40 Bennett wallabies at Leonardslee Gardens, Lower Beeding, near Horsham, are relishing the cold snap and cutting a cute figure in their pens.

The Bennetts, also known as red-necked wallabies, hail from Tasmania and are happily used to the snow.

Robin Loder, who runs the tourist attraction, said: "We have used these wallabies at Leonardslee for the last 110 years.

"We utilise them as mowing machines. They are environmentally-friendly, do not use a lot of petrol and we pay them no wages.

"They work 365 days a year, even at weekends, and in all weathers. They never go on strike and have no pension fund, and they also keep producing new mowing machines for us.

"They love the snow and don't feel the chill. They are not bothered by this sort of weather and they look awfully cute at this time of the year."
