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
Each booking is personal to you. We will advise you of animal suitability and availability. On site sessions with our small exotic animals are very limited to specific dates for the general public. This restriction does not apply to off site sessions where we can bring small exotic animals for you to meet at any time. We can offer members of the neurodivergent and SEN communities special access year round.
