Embark on a wild adventure at WWP today and be ready to receive a warm welcome from our friendly team and of course, all the incredible animals that call our park home. We are set in the quaint village of Wingham, between popular Canterbury and Sandwich. Our park diligently cares for more than 200 species- that’s more than ANY other zoo in Kent! This includes the only Penguins, Orangutans and Chim

panzees in Kent as well as the only Moon Bears in the whole of the UK, plus many other very popular species including,

- Tigers
- Giraffes
- Parrots
- Flamingos
- Red Pandas
- Meerkats
- Sloths
- Crocodiles
To name but a few! We also have several walk-through exhibits and offer lots of unique and unforgettable encounters (including Penguin, Giraffe, Tiger feeding and Keeper for the Day). Meaning that you can make memories that will last a lifetime as you get up close and personal with all your favourites! In addition to our alluring animals, we also offer lots of opportunities for family fun and adventure with the largest animatronic dinosaur zoo in the county, 18-hole mini golf course, large indoor soft play area, photo opportunities, animal feeding stations, outside play areas, go karts, Bug Gardens and more! We are committed to inspiring a deep passion for the natural world. Therefore, your support not only directly helps us care for our own animals but also contributes to our vital conservation projects too. We can’t wait to welcome you for a big WWP adventure soon!

This time last year these two boys started their long journey from Belfast to join us here at WWP.
George has grown in confidence and Henry has grown in height!
These gorgeous boys are fantastic ambassadors for their species and have been great additions to our existing tower. We have loved getting to know them over the past year and are excited to see what the future holds.
If you would like to meet them for yourself, check out our experiences and get sufficiently slobbered on by our lovely lads👇

Happiest of birthdays to our darling Elizabeth🎉
Our little hurricane, Lizzie, turns 7 today.
Can you believe how time flies?
She enjoys nothing more than running around, playing and annoying her uncle Lucas.
We have cherished these 7 years and feel proud of the young chimp she has become.
Please enjoy this throwback to when she was around Margaret's age, cuddling their amazing mum, Tara.
Join us in wishing her the best day🤗

⚠️New species Alert⚠️
Please join us in welcoming, Maggie and Micheal, our brand new members of WWP.
These gorgeous cats are servals which can be found across the grasslands of Central and Southern Africa and they can leap over 2m in the air to catch their food... impressive right?
They arrived with us late last week and have both settled in really well.

✨Big or small, conservation is our GOAL✨

A leap in the right direction for WWP🐸

These Lemur Leaf Frogs are critically endangered in the wild. Markus, our curator, is on the committee for this species.
We have recently welcomed a few more froggy friends to our family and paired them off in the hopes that they will breed.
Their numbers in the wild have plummeted in the last few decades due to the illegal pet trade and deforestation.
These little frogs have a huge impact on their environment and ecosystems so stay tuned for more updates as we progress with our mission to conserve this species🤗
