"Male" Griffon vulture laid an egg : 'Harold' the vulture shocks staff by laying an egg after they thought 'he' was male for 20 years
I’m on the fence about visiting. Has anyone been here recently that could provide an up to date species list? According to zoo tier list (aside from the birds of prey of course) they seem to just have a handful of common reptiles, a few farm animals, meerkats, sand serval?
It is a place I have visited only once thus far, but may visit again in the future since my visit was not fully comprehensive. It's a nice enough place, with some good birds. The mammal collection is nothing spectacular, today reduced to a few meerkats, a rescue serval, several huskies, and some goats, pigs and ferrets. I believe in the past they also had Arctic fox, coati, camels ... though evidently no more. I couldn't seem to find the reptiles somehow ... though perhaps that was because I didn't look around too much. I did arrive rather late. It has a nice aesthetic for its bird shows, utilizing well the backdrop of the Kent hillsides. I think if you happen to be in the area, it's worth a visit.
