Summer Update

The safari park has seen some changes over the last year, the wolves have currently moved back up to the safari drive and are looking great in the long grass of the meadow. The youngsters are fully grown, so the pack looks great with Dad showing them how to be Wolves. Kuzma the male Tiger has returned to Banham Zoo where he has been joined by a new female Tiger and Miron has arrived here at Knowsley from Copenhagen Zoo. This very large male Tiger is settling in well and looks amazing in his new surroundings.

If you visited last year some of you may have noticed a change to the White Rhino, with Jazz and Bhinta moving on, to help the breeding programme. Keva and Byami have joined Winnie, Piglet and Meru, plus the males, Sharka and Pembay making up the very large crash.

Last year also saw the Chapmans Zebra depart and new Grevy Zebra arrive. The two stallions are still in a side paddock settling into Safari Park life, but we can’t wait for them to join the other animals on the Africa section of the drive.

The Bushdogs have seen a complete refurbishment of their exhibit and they are loving playing around in their new surroundings, which also gives us much better viewing opportunities.

Our safari park and macro studio 1-2-1 photograph events have been really popular over the last few months. We’ve also had lots of customers coming along with another member of their family, a friend or colleague as an additional attendee on these events. Normally these second (or even third) places are charged at £25, but for August and September we are doing them ABSOLUTELY FREE!

All you need to do is find a ‘photo buddy’ to come along, book an event & schedule a date during August or September and you can get an amazingly good value day of quality photography!
