Roan, a Syrian bear, relaxes with a morning dip in his enclosure at the Melbourne Zoo August 13. The bear had just taken part in a trial where keepers applied aromatherapy oils in a bid to stimulate his environment. Other animals have reacted favourably to the treatment with responses ranging from curiosity, excitement, playfulness and even an amourous reaction. According to keepers, lavender and peppermint scents are popular and camomile nicknamed "the love potion".
