The rate at which this collection is developing is simply astonishing. Excuse my ignorance, but do we have a rough date for the new Tropical House...
10 acres larger? Although I can't find any measurements online for the size of Whipsnade's paddocks, a quick use of the Google Maps area...
I haven't seen it in person, but surely the enclosure at Parque de la Naturaleza de Cabarceno in Spain matches that description: [IMG]...
Personally, I thought the indoors was the weakest area of Colchester’s exhibit, with its very shallow substrate, dark lighting, and small size of...
Surely given that, as mentioned upthread by TLD, gorillas are rainforest-dwelling animals in the wild, they will benefit from having an indoor...
I have seen three out of the five (Colchester, Howletts and Noah's Ark), and although Howletts deserves credit for maintaining such a large herd...
Thanks for these updates. If you ever return to SLoRA, according to a keeper, one of the Chapa Mossy Frogs can almost always be seen hiding in...
Great to hear you enjoyed your visit, and that you saw an active giant salamander. Both from my own experience and from what I have heard from...
Thanks for sharing this, I hadn't realised that the aviary was once two, nor that one of the aquarium tanks once held seals. I personally really...
What exhibits are you referring to in each of these instances, as I don't recall seeing anything of that description on my visit a couple years...
Interestingly, on my visit, he was roaring throughout the five or so hours for which I was there at various random intervals. A remarkable sound...

Thanks for sharing this review, @Skukuza - Brean is a collection that I have considered visiting for the Egyptian Mongoose, and am able to do so...
Hamerton has bred this species twice over the past three years (in 2021 and 2023) per ZTL, so perhaps they came from there?

Strange that you didn’t see a sign on the Cassons. Worth noting it is only on the south entrance (near Animal Adventure and the Display’s Lawn) as...
Indeed Bhanu has conventionally been rather quiet, but on my last two visits this has changed and on my most recent visit last month he could be...
The sign above the Casson was added in May/June last year when they initially re-opened to the public after many years of closure, and indeed does...
Definitely ZSL. WWT is fairly good for birdwatching with a large marsh in the centre and some good hides with which you can observe them, but in...
Thank you so much for sharing this, that is really helpful!
