Zoos & Wildlife Parks

These days, most aquariums, wildlife parks and zoos in England are not just about experiencing wild animals close-up, yet are focused on protecting them too.

One of the most renowned zoos in England, 100-acre Marwell Wildlife in Hampshire is also dedicated to the conservation of wildlife and habitats. From rainforest wildlife to an underwater view of penguins, Marwell Wildlife has animals from all corners of the world.

Across the Solent, one of the most popular zoos in Englandis the Isle of Wight Zoo. Home to one of the biggest collections of tigers and lemurs in the country, the Isle of Wight Zoo preserves many endangered species through research and education.

Be sure to see the reptiles, fish, Canadian beavers, rabbits, chipmunks at Beaver Zoological Gardens in Surrey. Finally in Kent, Howletts and Port Lympne Wild Animal Parks are specifically designed to protect and breed endangered species with the aim of returning them to their natural habitats.
