Exotic Zoo Wildlife Park, Telford

Brilliant town zoo. Not huge, but animals appear well cared for and enclosures are a good size. We did an armadillo experience and was extremely happy with the whole experience, Sam was very knowledgeable, took time to answer questions and clearly cares for the animals (even allowed by husband and 2 year old to join in with feeding the big armadillo which made the experience so much better). Animals all seemed happy and were active. The cafe is beautifully decorated (with animals which toddler loved!) and food/drinks were great value and good quality. All staff we met were helpful, chatty and smiling. Overall, would highly recommend.

We booked the VIP Family Experience and we were not disappointed. On arriving we were given a list of the animals we could choose from to take around with us. We explored the zoo and had lots of fun and interactions before we even got to start our experience. There were lots of staff around, providing talks and chances to meet various animals. We’d had a great visit before our experience even started. All the enclosures looked amazing and enriching and the whole place was clean, and tidy, even the toilets lol. Later we met with Sam, who took our list of choices and once we started she gathered lots of food for us to feed the different animals. She gave us a fantastic experience. She has a great personality and gave us lots of information and interaction with each animal and answered our many questions. She never rushed us and we felt we had a good amount of time with every animal we met. We were able to get lots of photo opportunities and had so much fun even with being rained on at times. This was such an amazing experience and definitely worth every penny. I would highly recommend visiting and if you can stretch to get one of the experiences, you will not be disappointed. Big thanks to all the staff at Exotic Zoo who made this a great day and a massive thank you to Sam who was absolutely awesome!!!
