Longleat Safari & Adventure Park Longleat Safari Park News 2019

I haven't visited Longleat in a couple of years but hope to go again in the coming weeks.

I was wondering do Longleat still have Warthog? I remember they got 3 from Colchester Zoo at some point for a drive past enclosure just by the East African Reserve?

 

I don't know if they still have them but the 3:0 that arrived where called Vlad & Artilla think the 3rd had a warrior name as well

 

Benny the Male Aardvark is settling in well into his new home since arriving earlier this year

Tree Porcupine has just arrived and her name is Parsnip

 

Longleat just keeps on getting better and better. First the hyenas, then the koalas and wombats AND giant otters and cuban crocodiles and now a tree porcupine! I only visited last year and they had none of these species - looks like I'm going to have to visit again very soon...

 

Well this is very interesting - thanks for the update Jedd

Is she on show yet / do you know where her enclosure will be? I assume in the same sort of area as the anteaters etc? Also - do you know if the intention is to source a mate / companion for her?

 

It's on Facebook if you want to look

 

Thanks - but it doesn't answer either question.

 

The video suggests she is on show and in the animal adventure area - you can see the animal handling hall in the background.

 

Thanks - I am not very familiar with Longleat so wasn't sure.
