** PROTECTING OUR BIRDS Due to an increase in Avian influenza locally, to help protect our 1,200 birds we have introduced some biosecurity measures like walk-through footbaths (like a wet mat) at the entrance and various points on site which contains a ministry approved disinfectant against bird flu. If you keep birds, especially poultry and waterfowl at home, can we respectfully ask that you change your outer clothing and footwear if they are used when looking after your birds before visiting us. Thank you. Currently, only a short walk-through element in one bird enclosure and our small Tropical House are closed. We have also moved our flamingos into an off show covered enclosure for their safety. Sorry for any inconvenience and thank you for your understanding during this difficult time.
