Noah’s Ark is now closed for the season. We re-open the 14th Febuary 2009. Please see events for details of nativity plays during December where you will be able to see some of your favourite animals from the zoo!

For the first time you can now watch our resident Brazilian Tapirs live.

A camera has been installed in the Tapir House which is feeding live video straight to your screen!

The camera is online 24 hours a day. The Tapir House is cleaned in the morning so you may see keepers working hard or visitors undertaking a keeper experience! The best time to see the Tapirs is from lunchtime onwards.

Here at Noah’s Ark we offer a very different day out.

Come and enjoy our daily animal shows where we use live animals from the zoo, discover our indoor and outdoor play areas,
feed our baby lambs, llamas, alpacas,
get up close to our Giraffe, Rhinos, Zebras and experience a real hands on day out.

Come rain or shine there is always something to enjoy at Noah’s Ark. Kids can wear themselves out on our 11 all weather playgrounds or stay nice and dry in our huge indoor play barn!

Termite Mountain is now open! The educational playground is aimed towards 5-10’s and is just outside the Giraffe enclosure.

Noah’s Ark is happy to welcome a stunning pair of South American Iguanas. The male is of an unusual bright orange colour, which is to attract females for mating.

The flock of Ostriches have arrived from a breeding farm in Devon and placed in the newly zoned Africa section within the 100 acre zoo along with Rhinos, Giraffe and Zebra. Their newly built enclosure will have sand in the house and yard, to replicate their natural African environment.

Noah’s Ark Zoo Farm, Wraxall welcomed new arrivals in 2007. Two Siamang Gibbons (Symphalangus syndactylus), the largest of the 9 gibbon species (gibbons are known as the Lesser Apes), moved to Noah’s Ark Zoo Farm’s newly constructed Gibbon Gallery exhibit from Twycross and Banham Zoos as part of a European Endangered Species Programme (EEP).
