Food preparation, face-to-face encounters and feeding are all in a day’s work for the zookeepers at Ark Wildlife Park – and it will be for you too, with this animal-keeper experience for two! You’ll both be given a behind-the-scenes tour, learning everything there is to know about looking after these curious creatures. You’ll have a chance to prepare food and hand it out when you meet them – you might even make a few new friends once they get a sniff of the snacks you’ve prepared! Throughout the experience, the keeper will teach you about caring for these well-loved animals to make sure they are happy and healthy. After your keeper experience, you’ll have a tasty lunch at the Kalahari Café and the rest of the day to have a look at all the animals at the park after gaining a greater appreciation of what goes into their day-to-day care.
