Whipsnade Zoo

Description
With your admission ticket you are able to fast track and skip any queue to enter the zoo without waiting in line! Once inside escape on an adventure across acres of beautiful English countryside with fantastic views across the Chiltern Downs and watch lions, tigers, elephants, hippos and giraffes out and about in huge outdoor enclosures. Hop aboard the Jumbo Express train adventure or take a free Safari Bus as you make your way around the scenic Zoo, one of Europe's largest conservation centres.
New for 2008 is a fantastic Cheetah exhibit which will bring visitors up close to the fastest land animals and has interactive features that will give visitors the chance to learn more about Cheetahs and the conservation work ZSL carries out in Tanzania. Read more about these amazing animals and their fantastic new home in the Cheetah Rock section below.
Don’t miss 2007’s new walk-through exhibit, “In with the Lemurs”, where the barriers are down and nothing separates visitors from a troupe of ring tailed lemurs as they walk through a little bit of Madagascar in the heart of Bedfordshire. Visitors enter the exhibit via a bridge across a moat onto an island where our troupe of lemurs live, creating an up-close adventure with these cheeky ring-tailed primates in a barrier free environment.
Re-opening at Whitsun half-term is our hugely successful "Elephantastic" demonstration where specialists demonstrate the training methods they use with these fantastic animals and explain why elephants are so important. Also don’t miss out on the ever popular sea lion and birds of prey demonstrations.
