Animal Encounters »
A close encounter of the Durrell kind... Go behind the scenes with the animal of your choice, and hear first hand from the keepers just what life is like for them - inside and outside the wildlife park.
 
Keeper for a Day »
No two days are ever the same for our keepers, come and have a one of a kind experience, and ‘walk in their wellies’ for a day.
 
Vet experience »
See first hand how we care for our animal residents, and get hands on experience with treating some of the most endangered species in the world.
 
Lemur Liaison »
Some of our most endearing characters here at Durrell are our Lemurs. Get to know them personally, inside ‘Lemur Lake’ - our mixed species enclosure, and see how they behave, up close!
 
 
 

“All the animal encounters were great and each were special in their own right...
The children spoke with deep fondness and excitement to their friends and class about their adventure at the wildlife park, and both proudly showed off their aye aye sticks to anyone who was interested!!!”
