Harriet our African Sulcata Tortoise

Wow, what a difference 4 and half years makes! This is a photo of Harriet the sulcata tortoise a couple of months after we got her back in 2008, and another of her just a few days ago! We'll be needing a wheelbarrow to move her around in a couple more years....



Want to meet Harriet, along with our other amazing animals? Book a really wild reptile encounter with Wild Kids Reptile Parties - The Zoo that comes to you! www.wildkidsreptileparties.co.uk

Our animals visit Archway school!

Back in April, we spent a whole day doing six animal encounters at Archway school, for their 'Audacious Animals' week being held in the school library. It was a great day, with almost 200 students being able to meet with our animals!

Here are a few photos from the day -


Our animal encounters are available for schools, nurseries, residential homes and more! Email us at hello@wildkidsreptileparties.co.uk for more details.

We've recently had a camera crew over from Image Impact, a production company specialising in wildlife documentaries, to film our baby snakes hatching. Some great footage was taken of the hatchlings taking their first breath and emerging from the egg, which will be used in a documentary about Chinese snakes! We shall keep everyone informed as to when it will be aired.
