Pick & Mix Animals - Animal Story

Pick & Mix Animals

This is where you can pick which animals come to visit your group. Depending on the length of time you have booked, this will affect the number of animals shown in that time. From experience 8 animals fill a one hour talk.

Schools please note that if you are booking multiple talks i.e. a full day, we cannot do more than two pick and mix choices in a single day.

An * indicates that this animal is unsuitable for children under 6yr.

NB: Our animals are of paramount importance to us. Unfortunately sometimes a chosen animal may not be able to visit on your chosen day. If this happens we will try to offer you another choice from the list. However we have the right to supplement your talk with an alternative animal at any time.

To help you choose we have marked the animals as Hold/Touch/Look. Animals marked T/L enjoy being stroked but dont like being passed around. We will hold them allowing your group to touch and look. Animals marked with just a L are either delicate or able to bite. These animals are show in a safe and controled way. 

H = Hold  
T = Touch
L = Look only
