    I've noticed there's no thread for this small Welsh tropical greenhouse in the centre of Swansea,Wales,that has a small collection of tropical animals.. I've not yet visited it,so i have no input to what it's like,but thought i'd open the thread to others who have visited it or wish to..

    I have just noticed some news about Plantasia in Swansea has been posted on the BIAZA website.

    In April, there were successful births of a single Egyptian tortoise and a clutch of Edward's pheasants.

    Over lockdown, several species have been rehomed to Plantasia including a green iguana, a young chameleon, a colony of leaf-cutting ants and a goliath birdeater. When it reopens on May 17th, Plantasia will also be the only place in Wales to offer a crocodile-feeding experience.
