Marwell Wildlife

A visit to Marwell Wildlife is a chance to get close to the wonders of the natural world – and play a big part in helping to save them. From ring-tailed coatis to red-eyed tree frogs, laughing kookaburra to frilled lizards, giraffe-nosed catfishes to bat-eared foxes – our 140-acre park is home to over 250 exotic and endangered species, in beautiful, landscaped surroundings. With three play areas, a wide range of food and drink outlets, and road and rail trains its more than just a walk in the park. Find out more at www.marwell.org.uk.
