Located in one of the UK’s most popular seaside resorts, Blackpool Zoo has often been called a “hidden gem”, and we couldn’t agree more.
Home to more than 1,000 mammals, birds and reptiles set amidst 37 acres of woodland and lakes, there is something for everyone to enjoy, and we hadn’t realised just how many of our favourite animals we would be able to see.
Here’s a run-down of our favourite, most charismatic characters we saw during our fantastic day at Blackpool Zoo - watch to the end to see our winner!
Blackpool Zoo are proud members of The British and Irish Association of Zoo’s and Aquariums (BIAZA) charity, who are a professional body representing the best zoos and aquariums in the UK and Ireland.
Being a member of BIAZA demonstrates the zoo’s dedication to conserving the natural world through research, conservation and education, and in doing so Blackpool Zoo hopes to inspire visitors to do the same.
