About

The Whipsnade Zoo allows you to do something that no other Zoo in UK allows you to do. And that is becoming a zookeeper for a day!

During the experience you'll work with an expert Zookeeper who will show you how we look after some of our incredible animals, including rhinos, giraffes and elephants. With rhinos ! How cool is that?

‘‘I went with my sister who really isn't fond of zoos. But whipsnade and the zookeeper experience has made her rethink.

She knows not all zoos won't be like whipsnade so well done !!! The day was packed with mucking out, preparing food and feeding.

Our zookeeper Penny was warm and friendly and very informative. We were given breakfast and lunch and water to take round with us….’’
