Last Sunday, our tapirs were built a rotating angled feeder thanks toTeam Building with BITE! This feeder encourages natural foraging behaviours, by getting the food off the floor and helping engage different muscles while browsing.

Adventure Calls at Knowsley Safari

Opened in 1971, Knowsley Safari is now in its 44th year. One of the biggest and best safari parks in the UK, Knowsley Safari Park has a 5-mile safari drive with lions, camel, white rhino and our cheeky troop of olive baboons. (Remember to take the car friendly route if you want to avoid those naughty monkeys) The park also has a large walk-around area, offering close-up views of giraffe, meerkats, tapirs and now our brand new Amur Tiger Trail! If you havenโ€™t got a car, donโ€™t worry, you can still enjoy this fantastic walk around area or hop on the baboon bus for a guided tour of the safari drive. The park is open daily but please visit our website www.knowsleysafariexperience.co.uk for more details on our opening times. Plus here youโ€™ll find out when our fantastic animal displays are. Knowsley Safari is also a member of British and Irish Association of Zoos and Aquariums (BIAZA) and European Association of Zoos and Aquaria (EAZA). This means weโ€™re proud to stand alongside our fellow animal collections and support the care of all animals. Conservation is at the heart of what we do, and we love to share our passion for wildlife and environmental issues here on our page.
