Those little faces! 🥹🦦

Eden and Makati are Asian short-clawed otters - the smallest otter species in the world, but full of the biggest personalities!

They’re endlessly curious, super chatty and love exploring every corner of their habitat together. 🍂

In the wild, these clever otters live in family groups and use over a dozen different squeaks and calls to communicate. ✨

Today is Remembrance Sunday.

At 11am, we will observe a two-minute silence across the zoo to honour and remember all the people who have served and sacrificed.

We also remember the many animals who were part of those efforts, and whose lives were given in conflict.

He’s green. He’s grumpy. And he’s coming to Banham Zoo! 🎄

On Saturday 13th December, The Grinch himself will be here to spread his very own brand of Christmas “cheer” (if you can call it that).

Expect sarcasm, sass and maybe even a stolen mince pie or two. Do you dare to meet the master of mischief this festive season?

POV: You are currently being eaten by spoonbills... 😱

If found, please send help. 🐦

(Actually… don’t panic - spoonbills only scoop up tiny fish and insects. Their spoon-shaped bills help them filter food from the water!)

Slow starts done right 🦥

Linne’s two-toed sloths spend most of their time hanging upside down - even when eating breakfast!

Rolo’s still learning from mum Rowan how to navigate life in the trees, one slow bite at a time. 🌿

Our Story

Banham Zoo is an award winning family attraction and one of the most exciting wildlife attractions in the country, with over 2,000 animals from around the world and set in 50 acres of beautiful parkland and gardens.

The Zoo welcomed its first guests in 1968 and was opened by Martin Goymour who is the third generation of a well-respected Norfolk family.

On Valentine’s Day 14th February 2013, Banham Zoo, along with our sister park Africa Alive! near Lowestoft, Suffolk, became part of the Zoological Society of East Anglia (ZSEA). By becoming a registered charity this has enabled the parks to secure their long term futures, with the primary aims to the advancement of education, zoology, animal welfare, environmental protection and continue with the important work undertaken for wildlife conservation across the world.

The ultimate beneficiaries of all that we do, with your support, are the animals in our care and wildlife conservation.
