Feeding the animals at Dudley Zoo this Christmas

on 25 December 2020

DZC is not only home to a large collection of endangered species, but also an 11th century castle, the world's largest single collection of Tecton buildings, and an important geological site. DZC has something to offer all - and a chance to get closer to some of the world's rarest animals.

Story

Dudley Zoo is a non for profit charity which rely on ticket sales to operate and care for their animals. Due to Covid-19 they have had a difficult year, having to close during the two Covid-19 lockdowns. During both closures they have needed to continue to feed and care for over 1,600 animals. 

This Christmas I am asking you to make a donation rather than sending us Christmas cards. Any donation will help support the zoo to continue to care for the animals over the winter period.
