PLANS FOR OUR SNOW LEOPARD BREEDING FACILITY
We’ve been given the fantastic news by the European studbook holder that we now have a breeding recommendation for Centurio and Nefeli, our pair of snow leopards. Being in the oldest section of the zoo their current enclosure is, like many of us, starting to look its age, so we want to provide them with a new modern breeding facility that will suit a growing family.
The cost for the project from start to finish is a whopping £175,000
A MAJOR FUND RAISING DRIVE IS NOW UNDERWAY!
THERE ARE STILL LOTS OF WAYS YOU CAN SHOW US YOUR SUPPORT TO HELP WITH THE ONGOING COSTS OF RUNNING THE ZOO. WE HAVE BEEN OVERWHELMED WITH THE SUPPORT WE HAVE BEEN SHOWN SINCE THE FIRST LOCKDOWN IN MARCH 2020, THIS HAS VERY MUCH KEPT US GOING - THANK YOU!
MAKE A DONATION - EVERY PENNY MAKES A DIFFERENCE THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT
