“One day I’ll be as big as you dad”💕💕💕😍. Our red kangaroo Joey is growing fast and spending more time out of the pouch. We’re not sure but this might be his first meeting with his dad.

This is a brilliant option for a day out with children. The village offers a cosy country pub with a children's menu and a range of dishes for adults, from crab thermidor to sausages and mash.

🍁🍂🍁🍂🍁Who doesn’t like a leaf pile to play in🤣…Mr and Mrs Red our breeding pair of Southern ground hornbills love rummaging through a leaf pile, it’s such fun!🥰. They pick out the prime quality leaves to store in their nest box.
In the wild Southern ground hornbills have been declining, due in part to persecution, habitat destruction, cultural beliefs, and other factors. They are IUCN listed as 'Vulnerable' but in some areas they are already nearly extinct.
Our birds have been great contributors to the captive breeding programme and Linton, one of the first to breed this amazing species in captivity in Europe, has been able to help others have a better understanding of the species needs in captivity.

Happy Birthday to our African lions Kali and Nabulaa, they turned 10 years old today, 30th September.
Our special guests Andrew and Emily, who joined us for a VIP Experience today, were able to hand feed them some special chicken leg treats and then watched them enjoy a venison main meal.
Here are some of our favourite photos of the cubs with mum and dad Zuri and Safina, through the years as they grow and mature into a the most beautiful adults.

🥰VIP ANIMAL EXPERIENCE ON A NORMALLY CLOSED DAY😌
If you enjoy an experience which is a bit more special and in a quiet and relaxed atmosphere, this one will be for you. We still have a couple of places left on our VIP animal experience day next Tuesday 30th September 25, first come first served. This is a day we are not scheduled to be open so you will have the zoo almost to yourself 😃. Have a look at our website for the full experience details. https://lintonzoo.com/animal-experiences.
You will have a chance to get up close and hand feed a couple of our amazing animals (see the choices listed). There is also the option to add on a big cat feed, where you really will be as close as a whisker!
If you are interested please email the office [email protected]
