With the opportunity to be ‘Keeper for the Day’, our Animal Encounter sessions and daily Feeding Times for various enclosures, you can get wonderfully close to our wide range of animals from all across the World. Hear your little ones giggle at the playful otters playing peek-a-boo, see them copy the meerkats as they perch on rocks and stare wide eyed into the huge eyes of the playful lemurs!

Our wide collection of endangered reptiles plays an important role in international breeding programmes; paving the way for our increasing focus on housing endangered species and focusing on animal conservation and captive breeding programmes. Not only extremely important work with so many at risk animals, but a fantastic opportunity to view rare and exotic species right here in Birmingham!
