It's more than just a walk in the park. |
See Summer’s new arrival
We are celebrating the recent birth of a Brazilian tapir. The humbug-striped baby girl was born on Tuesday 21 July as part of a conservation breeding programme for the species. The new arrival was born after a 13 month gestation to proud mum Summer. See our "humbug" close up.

Storytelling with “The Professor”
Visit the park between 10 -14 August and 17-21 August and take part in a fascinating story telling session.
