Bristol Zoo Project
About
Bristol Zoo Project is a world‑class wildlife haven spanning 50 acres of woodland, gardens, and open spaces just off the M5 motorway near Cribbs Causeway. The park showcases over 70 species, from lemurs and giraffes to gorillas and rare reptiles, with dedicated habitats such as the African Forest, Bear Wood, and Lemur Lagoon. Beyond the animal encounters, guests can enjoy animal talks, interactive feeding sessions, and a vibrant food and drink offering that caters to all ages. The zoo’s core mission is conservation; more than 80% of the animals are part of active breeding and rescue programmes that extend across ten countries. Visitors find the experience both educational and entertaining, and the park prides itself on being accessible and family‑friendly, with free entry for children under two and a range of discounted tickets for members. With thriving community engagement and an impressive commitment to sustainability, Bristol Zoo Project invites travellers of all ages to explore nature’s wonder while supporting vital global conservation efforts.
