Animal Talks and Exhibitions

We have a wonderful Presenter Team giving fun, informative talks at various animal enclosures throughout the day, every day.

A different series of talks takes place on each day of the week.  You can also find the Presenters at the entrance plaza at 10:30 for up to date zoo news; in Fruit Bat Forest and in the Joseph Banks Room (our exhibition space) and they are always happy to chat about our animals. 

We have a very knowledgeable team, especially about the zoo’s animals, and if they can’t answer your questions, they’ll find out for you!

Animal Talks

Each animal talk lasts a little under ten minutes and includes lots of interesting facts about our own animals, animals in the wild and their conservation status and what we all can do to help save endangered species.

Exhibitions

The Joseph Banks Room, between the Lions and Mongoose Mania, is our exhibition space.

Our current exhibition Hot Pink Flamingos, originally designed and displayed by the Monterey Bay Aquarium in California, seeks to raise awareness about the untold impacts of climate change on the world’s oceans.
