“Such a special experience.”
Having the Tropical House to ourselves after hours was incredible. Feeding the sloth was unforgettable, and the keepers were so knowledgeable and friendly. We learned so much about the animals and their care — it felt really personal and unique.
“A hidden gem.”
This experience was amazing from start to finish. Helping with food prep and enrichment gave us a real insight into daily life at the zoo, and the behind-the-scenes access made it feel truly exclusive. We’d highly recommend it to anyone who loves sloths!
