Animals

Get closer to over 130 species at award winning Newquay Zoo!

There is lots to see and do at on a visit to the Zoo. Let the kids run wild and enjoy some family time whilst you watch the penguins diving in and out of their pool, visit the creepy crawlies in the Tropical House, watch the lions tuck into their lunch and learn heaps about conservation.

If you would like to know anything about any of the animals during your visit, please ask a member of the team.

Have lots of fun at Newquay Zoo!

Our zoo is home to an amazing array of animals, set amongst 13 acres of established sub-tropical gardens. Visit the African Savanna exhibit, home to stunning black wildebeest, nyala antelope, and strikingly beautiful zebras (including a baby). View these animals roaming in a mixed species herd from a viewing platform that gives you a birds-eye view.

Look high up into the trees for beautiful red pandas, meerkats on sentry duty and the otters playing in their stream. As well as a large variety of unusual species, the Zoo has a village farm with more familiar faces that children love. Make sure you say "hi" to Spike, our hand-reared pygmy goat.

New for Spring 2016 is our Gems Of The Jungle exhibit showcasing south east Asia's most threatened song birds. Free-flying birds will flutter above your head as you explore this new exhibit.
