Is it a boy or girl? Time to find out! 🐣🪶

Our keepers have given the secretary chick trio a health check and collected a few feathers for DNA testing to determine their s*x. 👀

We’ll have to wait for the results… but what’s your prediction?

What does it really take to care for thousands of animals? 👀🐘
 
Behind every animal, habitat, and conservation success is a dedicated team of keepers working tirelessly behind the scenes, doing whatever it takes to keep animals happy, healthy, and thriving.
 
So today, on International Zookeeper Day, we’re saying a huge thank you to the incredible people who make it all happen. 💚

We’ve found a wasp spider in Cheshire for the very first time! 💛🖤

Meet Wendy, a striking yellow-and-black spider who was discovered during a biodiversity survey of our estate.

Her colourful appearance helps to deter predators, but don't worry, they are completely harmless to humans. 😮‍💨

Due to climate change, their original habitat has become too warm for them - this is the furthest north-west they've been spotted!

Wendy’s arrival is a sign of how wildlife is being forced to adapt to a warming world. 🌍
