    A Day to Remember

    There is always something new at Newquay Zoo. Explore the new rainforest exhibit in the zoos tropical house where you will discover a whole world of exotic animals. Water cascades down the ancient temple walls to the pools filled with tropical fish. Spot the iguanas, sloths and flying fox bats and explore the mini beasts room featuring a new Arrow Poison Frog enclosure. Amongst the sub-tropical lakeside gardens live hundreds of animals from all around the world ranging from small rare monkeys to shy red pandas. Look out for meerkats on sentry duty, penguins playing in their pool and glimpse the strange and endangered lemurs and fossa. Other highlights of the day include feeding time talks and the animal encounters where you can meet keepers and some of the animals.
