Wildwood Discovery Park, British wildlife conservation park in Canterbury, England
The 42-acre woodland park contains natural habitats for more than fifty British animal species, including deer, badgers, wild boar, and brown bears.
The park transformed from a small wildlife center named Brambles into Wildwood Discovery Park in 1999, implementing extensive conservation programs.
The education department conducts programs aligned with national curriculum standards, teaching students about native wildlife adaptation and natural habitats.
The park operates on the A291 road between Herne Bay and Canterbury, with planned reopening scheduled for spring 2025.
The facility manages breeding programs for water voles, one of Britain's most endangered species, supporting their reintroduction to natural environments.
