We need your help to look after our amazing animals here at the Zoo, It costs an average of £4000 per day to run Hamerton Zoo Park. All of this money comes from our visitors. Now we are closed, this has stopped completely.

Our animals need help from our visitors at this difficult time. Our staff and regular volunteers all fit and fine, and are busy with their jobs, and their animals; which are enjoying the lovely weather.

Our spring babies are starting to be born. In addition to the latest Mini Donkey foal, Dingo puppies and Wombat joey, we have young Scarlet Ibis in the first nest and our pair of Barking Owls (perhaps the only ones outside Australia), are aggressively defending their nest with an (as yet!) unknown number of eggs... Our first baby Red-handed Tamarin for over 20 years, twin Collared Lemurs, Flamingos stating to lay, another Zebra foal - it really is a bumper spring..!

All is quite normal for our animals!

They cannot put their lives on-hold, so neither can we!

We really appreciate all your support.

THANK YOU x
