Twycross Zoo 3rd November 2016

There are different opinions of zoo... and the morality of keeping animals in them. For me, there is not one answer that covers all zoos. Twycross Zoo does a tremendous amount of work around conservation of habitat & species as well as significant education work. The animals there all appear to be well housed and cared for, and there is always development work going on... extending the zoo, extending the range of species and improving the enclosures... all of which appear to be spacious and comfortable for the animals.

The zoo has always specialised in monkeys and apes, and still does, thought the range of species is becoming more diverse.

Following are some of the species you will see when visiting
