Animal Feeding Experience

With this interesting zoo experience you will learn all about these amazing creatures that originate from the island of Madagascar. They are now critically endangered and captive breeding is essential to their continued survival.

We now give you the opportunity to get up close and personal with a group of ring tailed lemurs! These fascinating and gentle creatures will use you as their personal climbing frame while feeding from your hand! Your day will start in the Discovery Centre where you will have complimentary refreshments. One of the parks trained staff will escort you to the lemur enclosure, where you will receive a health and safety briefing. You will then spend around 15 minutes with the keeper inside the lemur enclosure feeding the friendly lemurs by hand as they use you as their personal climbing frame! (Cautionary note – they are not toilet trained!).

The keeper will be on hand to answer any questions you may have. They will assist you to Feed the Lemurs and to capture wonderful photographs on your camera.

You are welcome to arrive early and stay late to enjoy the other animals, shows, daily events and other attractions at this fantastic zoo.

You will receive a souvenir T-shirt and a presentation certificate to prove your incredible feat! 

All of our gift experiences are presented in an attractive red case with “Congratulations – you are the lucky recipient of a Well Wicked experience day” written on the front. You will also get a DVD featuring many of our experiences. Experience vouchers can be personalised if required.
