Hamerton Zoo Park, Wildlife park in Hamerton, England.
Hamerton Zoo Park is a wildlife facility spread across 25 acres with separate enclosures housing mammals, birds, and reptiles. The spaces are designed to recreate natural settings where these animals can move and behave more like they would in the wild.
This location began as farmland and was transformed into a zoo in 1990 when the local Member of Parliament officially opened it. The change from agricultural use to wildlife park marked a significant shift in how the land was used.
The zoo runs educational visits for schools where children learn about wildlife conservation and animal behavior through direct observation. Visitors of all ages can explore how different species live and interact in their designed habitats.
The park is open daily and offers a coffee shop, gift shop, children's play area, and picnic spots throughout the grounds. Comfortable walking shoes are recommended since exploring the park involves moving between different animal areas on foot.
The park is home to White-bearded Civets from Sumatra, animals found nowhere else in the United Kingdom. This makes it a special place to see a rare species that most other British zoos do not house.
