Testimonials from previous participants
'thankyou very much to all your keepers and staff who made my 'Keeper for a day' experience, one of the best things I have ever done in my life. I enjoyed every minute of the day and was sad to leave the animals and keepers behind!'
'we would like to thank all the keepers for their welcome and their pride in which they took interest in their animals. We felt very safe and at ease with the staff and the day was very much enjoyed.'
'I had such a wonderful day being keeper for the day. Please, Please thank everyone envolved for being so patient and for answering all my questions. Everyone obviously loved their jobs and the animals they look after. I learnt a lot of interesting things and the day went much to quickly. Thank you all very much and I hope that I will be able to repeat the experience soon.'
'I had the privilege of attending your Wildlife Park, as a Keeper for the day, I must admit I was a little apprehensive, but as soon as I met the first Keeper I was put at my ease. All the Keepers I met during the day were very friendly and knowledgable and it seemed to me they were very passionate about their charges. I really enjoyed my day as a Keeper, and once again I would like to thank all the staff I met who helped in making my day so special.'
