Welcome to Paignton Zoo

Animals

Paignton Zoo is home to thousands of amazing animals all housed in 80 acres of natural habitat.

The Zoo is divided into six different habitat zones: Primley, Savannah, Forest, Wetland, Tropical Forest and Desert. All of these represent world habitats, except for Primley, which is an area of the Zoo where you can find animals from a variety of habitats. Find out more about these habitats by clicking on the name.

The animals in the Zoo are cared for by the keeping staff and by the veterinary team. They, along with the research staff, also work hard on environmental enrichment to ensure that the animals in the Zoo are active and stimulated.
