Curraghs Wildlife Park, Wildlife park in Lezayre, Isle of Man

Curraghs Wildlife Park is a wildlife park in the Ballaugh Curraghs wetland of north-west Isle of Man, owned by the Isle of Man Government. Its 26-acre core holds about 100 mainly wetland species in walk-through enclosures, while 15 acres remain undeveloped with bogs, Molinia grassland, open-water peat diggings, birch woodland and hay meadows crossed by nature, tree-top and butterfly trails.

The park was founded in 1963 under the Curraghs Acquisition Act of Tynwald, when the Isle of Man Government bought about 200 acres (81 ha) of former peat-digging land, splitting it into a 160-acre reserve and a 40-acre wildlife park. The 26-acre park was formally opened on 23 July 1965 by Lieutenant Governor Sir Ronald Garvey. In 2005 it hosted the annual BIAZA meeting for its 40th anniversary, and in 2009 it won BIAZA's Small Collection award for Best Education Project with schools.

The park's name comes from the Curraghs, the Manx wetland it occupies, and the reserve is protected under the Ramsar Convention as a wetland site of international importance. Its Close Beg children's farm keeps domestic animals, and the Orchid Line miniature railway runs through the grounds. In 2009 BIAZA gave the park its Small Collection award for the best education project with schools.

The park lies in the Ballaugh Curraghs wetland in the north-west of the Isle of Man, near Lezayre. Paths cross bogs, Molinia grassland, open water peat diggings, birch woodland and hay meadows, so waterproof footwear helps. Three waymarked trails cover the undeveloped 15 acres: a nature trail, a tree top trail and a butterfly trail, with signs on the ecology and history.

After red-necked wallabies escaped from the park in the 1960s, they established a feral population across the Isle of Man. The species now breeds in the wild far beyond the park fences.
