Jersey Zoo

Jersey Zoo's visitors call us the "zoo that's not a zoo". But we think we are what ALL zoos should be - a crucial part of the effort to save wild animals from extinction.

Here our conservation scientists can work with the animals up close and learn what they need to maintain good health, breed, survive and thrive in their natural habitats. We can then share this vital information with our colleagues working with them in the wild.

Wherever possible our animals live in specially landscaped, spacious enclosures which closely resemble their natural homes - that way we can see them behaving just like they would in the wild.

Jersey Zoo is open from 9.30am until 6pm (summer) and 5pm (winter) every day of the year except Christmas Day.
