Join us for a behind-the-scenes look with Tracey as she shares insights into caring for our Capybara, Johnson! 😊 Tracey conducts regular health checks on Johnson, carefully inspecting his toes, tummy, eyes, and ears. ✨ In addition to these check-ups, Tracey has also trained Johnson and his tapir housemates to sit, lie down, and even roll over! 😯
To watch the full video and learn more about Johnson, visit our YouTube channel by searching Wild Planet Trust! 😊
Did you know that pelicans swim in a line like this when they are hunting? They work together, swimming in synchronisation, and with each flap of their wings the sound they create drives the unsuspecting fish toward shallow waters! Once in the shallows, they can duck their heads under the water with their bills expanded and trap the fish🐟🐠💦
Snack time with Johnson: ASMR Edition🌿🌱🍃 Thank you Keeper Kelly for capturing this capy cuteness🥹
Zoomies! 🌪
When our Red Pandas get those zoomies, there's no stopping them! 😂 Did you know that Red Pandas can run at speeds of up to 30 mph!? 😮 However, when they're not running around, they typically spend two-thirds of their days sleeping 🥱Whether they’re zooming through the trees or catching some well-deserved Zs, these guys have a perfectly balanced lifestyle ✨
Lunch at Newquay Zoo is always a treat 😋 especially for our marmosets!🐒

You can also join her in making a pledge to conservation – hold a fish, make a wish, and let’s protect our planet together!🌏🐾 By pledging to do a 2-minute beach clean, eating locally sourced fish, or using less single-use plastics, you can make a big difference to your impact on the localk environment whilst on your trip to Cornwall♻️
