Had a "keeper experience" yesterday and as a life-long nature lover the 3+ hours went by far too fast. Both keepers were amazing and I would highly recommend the experience to others. Full review by Chris M

This didn’t feel like a zoo to me. Whilst obviously it does contain captive animals the keepers seemed to make a genuine effort to keep the animals happy and stimulated, in a situation similar to their natural environment. Also many of the animals were there because it was necessary for someone to look after them, for various reasons. Furthermore, many of the animals are endangered, so it can help in the short term to hold some in captivity, particularly as some are part of breeding programmes. Hope that helps!
