Spend four hours experiencing what it’s like to be a Zookeeper here at BCA Zoo. Come and help behind the scenes to feed, clean and look after some of the amazing animals living here. After a health and safety briefing, you will head over to our Zoo kitchen to help rustle up some unusual lunches before dishing them out to the animal eagerly anticipating your arrival. You will then get a chance to get mucky helping to clean up after our cheeky meerkats and their neighbour Denzil, our famous porcupine.
This experience is suitable for all animal enthusiasts, but can be tailored to suit – so if know a farmyard fanatic or a lizard lover, please do get in touch with specific requirements.
