What Can I Expect

Come face to face with remarkable species on this Rare Animal Encounter experience in Bristol! These private visits for one or two people will take you behind the scenes at a specialist centre between Clevedon and Congresbury, to meet the rarest of residents. 

Concentrating on educational and conservation work, this animal centre is not generally open to the public, so it's a real privilege to be invited on these exclusive guided tours hosted by the animal keepers and conservationists.

All the animals you'll meet on this experience are rare or even endangered, which is why the work at this Bristol centre is super important. Numbers in the wild are dropping, so rearing and nurturing these rarities in this safe environment is essential for the species' survival.

So, who could you be getting up close to on these rare animal encounters? You will adore the Binturong, the gorgeous Bearcats native to South and South East Asia - and officially classed as a vulnerable species.

Then there are the rarest of raptors to meet, such as the Chilean Blue Eagle, as well as the super cute North American Foxes, once bred for their fur. And who could forget Alejandro the loveable Armadillo?

If you're brave, you'll be wanting to get up close to Pandora. She's a Hog Island, one of the rarest Boas in the world with a story to tell, having come back from the edge of extinction.

Over the course of your two-hour visit, you'll learn lots about each species through close up interactions with the animals and the introductions given by your keeper guide. Buy your voucher online now for your Rare Animal Encounter for one or two of you.
