Amphibian Ark experience

If you have an interest in amphibians and their conservation, or are an avid fan of these wonderful animals and want to talk to the experts, then our amphibian animal experience is perfect for you.

Come and meet our fascinating collection of frogs, toads, newts, salamanders and their relatives.

With amphibian species from around the world including Central and South America, Europe, and South East Asia, this will be an animal encounter to remember.

You will enjoy a one to one tour with one of our keepers who will take you around our fascinating Amphibian Ark. You will see some species which are exclusively kept by us, see the work we are doing to prevent extinction of these amazing animals and have the opportunity to chat with the keeper.

Our Amphibian Ark is a working environment where we are currently conducting research with many amphibians including many species of dart frogs, stubfoot toads (a close relative of the Critically Endangered golden frog), Majorcan midwife toads, terrestrial and aquatic caecilians and more.

This is a great opportunity to see these unusual amphibian species close up and to learn about them and their conservation from our specialist keepers and scientists.

Please note handling of the animals is not allowed during this experience.
