Carnivore Keeper Experience (For up to two people)

Become a carnivore keeper for the day! You’ll learn all about the different characters, their history at the zoo, as well as the fine balance of the feeding routine and training that is so important to keeping big cats and other carnivores healthy and happy.

This is an intense, hard work, hands-on experience starting at 9:30am and running through to 1pm. Your day will start with caring for some of our smaller carnivores such as our cheetah or lynx. After a quick break, you will move on to our 4 big cat species - tiger, lion, jaguar and Amur leopard. The zoo is then yours to explore for the remainder of the day. Not for the fainthearted, this amazing experience will live with you forever.

Please note, this is a very physical experience, so a good level of mobility is required.
