    A bit late to report as news but they have changed their name to Polar Park with the additional titles Arctic Wildlife Centre and National Carnivore Centre

    The change was introduced gradually from 2013 and they say reflects the fact that the word 'zoo' isn't correct for them, that it implies animals in relatively small enclosures and that's not what they have. They want to be more of an 'experience park' than 'just a zoo'.
