Re: howletts zoo at port lypne
I completely agree with the summing up of that zoo, realist, I was absolutely shattered. Son and dil were visiting the UK and happy to do the walking but we were really feeling our age and towards the top hubs had to give up and make his way back down. I carried on, daft bat that I am. We couldn't see the animals in the fields, they were too far away (sensible creatures, probably), so really it was just a hike not a zoo visit. And the wasps - my goodness! My dil got a bee in her hair on entry and panicked, shaking her head to get it off - it landed on me and stung my hand. Was not a happy bunny. We saw lots of wasp catcher domes so the wasps were clearly an ongoing problem.Re: howletts zoo at port lypne
A zoo to avoid then. I got to Paignton zoo, that's a bit hilly too, but not that steep. The animals all look well & happy & you see their keepers everywhere, if you ask them questions they are very happy to chat about the animals they look after & seem very knowledgeable.
