We did a very conservative sum and realised that more than a quater of a million children came through our school programme over the past 30 years. That does not include our weekend and holiday demonstrations. This is a legacy that we are extremely proud of and endeavour to keep up for as long as we need to provide homes for surrendered exotic animals.

This must be by far the worst day in our history. A fire broke out in the early morning and destroyed our animal care centre, kitchen and food supplies. The community was incredible. The help and donations streamed in and although we will always be deeply sad about the animals we had lost in the flames and smoke, we will think back on this time with immense gratitude for the community who helped us through. The care centre is fully functional again and a must-see on your visit to Exotic Animal World.

Ealry morning on early days. In the picture: The tunels are up and so is, what is now the animal care centre. We just started on the restaurant, shop and offices. There were no trees, just big dreams and a clear vision!

On 6 November 2027, we will be 30 years old! We have moved from faxes to e-mails, PC's to laptops, landlines to cell phones, and cash to card to snapscan, but the heart of our place has always stayed the same...Nature is beautiful and worth protecting.
Hoot if you remember school outings in those old buses with the fake leather seats, (that heat up like a stove plate in the sun) windows that sort of open for aircon and a driver called Oom....

Another beautiful moment between one of our animals and a visitor...22 December 2020. If this is you, let us know!

Education manager, James Lawrence, spent some time with our lemurs one afternoon and took treats with him. These two hung around for quite some time...just to make sure that the bowl was well empty.

Special moments over 30 years...
Rosy, the Brazilian Rose Tarantula...she created many a moment with her hairy body, prickly toes and gentle nature...
