Hoo Zoo and Dinosaur World

Hoo Zoo and Dinosaur World Hoo Zoo and Dinosaur World, formerly known as Hoo Farm Animal Kingdom is a small family run zoo in Shropshire.

TripAdvisors 2nd Best Zoo in the UK for 2023, 2024, 2025 & 2026.. Celebrating their 30th birthday in 2021, Hoo Farm Animal Kingdom took the huge step of relaunching as Hoo Zoo and Dinosaur World. With over 100 species of animals, 30 animatronic dinosaurs and activities taking place all day Hoo Zoo really is a fun day out whatever the age. Hoo Zoo and Dinosaur World launched back in 1991 as Hoo Far

m Country Park and over the past 30 years has become one of the midlands premier attractions - even winning National Farm Park of the year along the way. In 2004 the farm became a licensed zoo and hasn’t looked back. Now the zoo is home to not just sheep, cows, pigs and horses but other zoo favourites such as Meerkats, Lemurs, Servals, Caracal and even Wolves. Hoo Zoo and Dinosaur World is extremely passionate about conservation with a strong message throughout the zoo of conservation through education. This is put across through the fun informative meet and greets that take place but also the renowned animal experiences (advanced booking essential). Whilst being great fun, the new dinosaurs are an important part of this message with it being more important than ever that steps are made to stop us going the way of the…..well dinosaurs! It's strongly recommended that customers prebook their tickets at www.hoo-zoo.com due to limited capacities.

*Hoo's Knows*
Did you know meerkat mobs are ruled by fierce queens 👑 who boss around up to 50 meerkats and take the best sunbathing spots for themselves?

👑 Queen of the Desert: Forget the lions; meerkats are ruled by queens! The pack leader is almost always a fierce alpha female who runs the entire show.

🍼 The Ultimate Mom: The alpha female holds a near-total monopoly on motherhood. She is usually the mother to up to 80% of all the pups born into her mob!

🐍 Fearless Commander: She doesn’t just sit back. The alpha leads her "mob" (which can be up to 50 meerkats strong!) in highly coordinated, fearless defenses against predators like eagles and cobras.

✨ Signature Scent: She literally leaves her mark on her squad! The leader actively rubs her unique scent onto her subordinates to remind everyone exactly who is the boss.

☀️ VIP Sunbathing: Being the boss comes with perks. The alpha always gets the absolute best spots for morning sunbathing and the prime locations for foraging bugs!..
