Recently I have been to Colchester zoo, I haven't been to this particular zoo for a few years so it was nice to see all of the developments and see what new animals are kept within the zoo.
Colchester zoo is one of my all time favourite zoos! I love it to bits and will always keep going there. There are a number of different animals and a number of different animal enclosures designs. Just looking at a number of different enclosures you can see that animal enrichment is taken extremely seriously within the zoo as every animals from their sunbears to their birds have got things to make it more enriching for the animals as a whole.
Another thing I would like to comment on is how impressed I was with the quality and the prices of the food there. It was around the same price as if you were to go to KFC, which makes a change because commonly you would be charged a lot more because it is a tourist attraction. The food was great and the drink was amazing aswell. The prices within the zoo gift shop were good and I adopted a elephant for only £20!
There were a number of different places within the zoo which visitors had the chance to donate monet to different animal charities. This therefore proving that a big part of their zoo was doing greater zoo within the animal conservation around the globe.
This is definitely one of my favourite zoos alongside Longleat, and I would 100% recommend it! Great for adults and children and great to educate people on important animal conservation issues and situations alongside educating people on the animals within the zoo itself!
Definitely go check it out!
P.S you get to feed both the elephants and giraffes for FREE. yes I said FREE!
