Just the ticket for families, this small well-kept zoo specialises in animals from Africa.

There are giraffes, lions, zebras, pygmy hippos, chimpanzees, sitatungas and baboons, as well as an array of African birdlife including trumpeter hornbill and African grey parrots.

And from around the world you can stand a few feet from jaguars, white Bengal tigers, black bears, Asian small-clawed otters, anteaters and a great deal more.
