OUR AMAZING
ANIMALS
We can't show you every amazing animal the world has to offer, but we can provide an incredible, uplifting, personal experience. You'll learn lots and come away appreciating the natural world even more
The work we do funds the animals' care and allows us to accept additional ones from time to time on a case by case basis. We only list the animals that we are licensed to exhibit
Not all animals are available or suitable for your booking. As each booking is different, we will advise you of suitability. We regret that due to legislation and the conditions of our licence, we can only show you pet, domesticated or farm animals at our holding ( we are an "animal establishment" and not a "zoo" )
