Step into the boots of a zookeeper and experience exactly what it's like to look after our biggest animals at the Zoo day to day!
What to Expect
You'll experience exactly what it's like to be a giraffe keeper. Arriving before the Zoo opens to the public, you will be greeted by our team who will take you across to our grade listed Giraffe House and introduce you to our resident giraffes.
Brooms and rakes in hand, you will get mucked in, helping to clean out their dens. Learn how to make a tasty browse bundle, head down to the fragrant herb garden to pick some tasty treats, and make up some enrichment for the giraffes. Be prepared to be awed by their size.
Your ticket also includes entry to the Zoo for the rest of the day so that you can explore all of our other 15,000 animals.
To protect our animals, staff and visitors, please do not visit the Zoo if you have any symptoms of COVID-19, and contact us to rearrange your experience.
