Banham Zoo

Animals are fascinating whatever their size, shape or behaviour and at Banham Zoo you can get a unique opportunity to see some incredible animals naturally demonstrating just how amazing they are!

The Amazing Animals presentation takes place throughout the year and features fantastic animals and birds such as serval, European genet, Swainson's lorikeets, armadillo, kookaburras and blue & gold macaws.

The indoor enclosure is home to a select number of diverse animals including Spiny-tailed Monitors, Swainson’s Lorikeets, White-faced Saki Monkeys, Azara’s Agouti, Egyptian Fruit Bats, and Green Winged Doves.

Exotic plants, trees, shrubs and bulbs have been carefully planted around the walkway and are already enjoying their new home, with new leaves, shoots and flowers coming to life.

Education Sessions

Banham Zoo has a comprehensive education programme covering all ages and abilities. Curriculum linked Discovery Sessions offer the chance to bring the wonders of the natural world to life with animal handling and the chance to see some amazing animal bio-facts.

Discovery Sessions are also available for groups looking for a fun way to add to their experience at the zoo. These sessions involve the chance to get up close and personal with some of the smaller animals in the zoo and can also be tailored to cover specific topics.

Sessions can seat up to 30 visitors.
