Meerkats eating from Pumpkin

Twycross Zoo are this half term bringing their popular Ghost Train.  Running from this Saturday (October 24) thru to Saturday October 31.  All sorts of ghosts, ghouls and gremlins will be haunting the train as it travels through the heart of the zoo.

The zoo will also be making feeding the Meerkats, Bat-Eared Foxes, Leopards and otters through hiding their food in bright jack-o-lanterns.  As well as being fun to watch this will also provide the animals with a new challenge in finding the creepy food inside.

From Thursday October 29, the Zoo Centre will be full of take home activities including making witch and wizard hats, decorated by cut out bats and spiders.

If you get hungry, the Zoo will also be offering ghoulish treats like their haunted cottage pie and lurch lasagne from the cafiteria.

Throughout the days the zoo will have witches and wizards running riot in the Gift Shop, casting spells on those who visit.  The gift shop will also give you the option to go home with the ultimate spooky souvenir and the opportunity to sponsor one of the zoos tiny baby Seba’s Fruit Bats which are roosting in the bat cave.
