Story

As we go into our second lockdown due to the coronavirus, Paradise Wildlife Park needs your help & support now more than ever. As a fully registered charity, the Zoological Society of Hertfordshire relies on ticket sales, zoo visits, and donations to operate. The COVID-19 Virus will have a detrimental effect on the care of our animals and team members, so we are asking you to please consider donating to our Animal Support Fund.

It is always our priority to keep our animals happy and healthy, however, it costs us around £3,000 a day in animal upkeep alone, and with the significant decrease of visitors during this pandemic, we need to ask for support. Your contribution will make an impact, whether you donate £5 or £100. Every little bit helps. For many years, our family run wildlife charity has connected people with wildlife to inspire a passion for nature. We've built natural habitats for animals under our care, rescued wildlife, and have contributed millions to saving species around the world.

Paradise Wildlife Park CEO, Lynn Whitnall, has said, Our Mission is to provide our animals with the best possible environment, enrichment, welfare and care, be actively involved in international Endangered Species Breeding Programmes and make substantial contributions to global wildlife conservation projects. Our community has always been supportive of the Zoo, through thick and thin. And with that support, we will get through this together.

We ask you kindly to support us in any way possible, from donations, animal adoptions, animal experiences, fundraising and spreading the word about the work we do on site at Paradise Wildlife Park and for conservation around the world.

So, from our family to yours, let's create a Paradise for all living things and fight this together. Thank you!
