Every visitor to Marwell makes a valuable contribution to our conservation work, helping to fund the projects we run. Learn how the actions of human beings can affect the survival of many species and what you can do to help.
Discover some of the conservation work we do in Africa, working with governments and worldwide organisations to ensure the survival of animals such as the Grevy’s zebra.
Although our main focus is on exotic animals, you will be surprised by the amount of work we do locally through our British wildlife programme.
You’ll have a wild time!
If you love animals or nature and want to enjoy an unforgettable day out for all ages then Marwell is the place for you.
Wander into the bush in the company of wallabies; step into Africa for an encounter with giraffes; visit lemurs from Madagascar; spot a poison arrow frog in the tropical rainforest; come face to face with a penguin under water; and listen for the roar of a tiger… you can experience a whole world of wildlife.
There’s so much to see and do, so why not invest in an Annual Pass? You can visit as often as you like and it is great value for money.
Tropical World - experience a spectacular rainforest environment.
World of Lemurs - with unique Madagascan primates.
Penguin World for thrilling underwater views.
Heart of Africa with African forest animals and a stunning aquarium.
Giraffe walkway - a 30 metre walkway into the giraffe paddock.
Birds galore! Owls, cranes, ostrich, rhea, flamingos, lovebirds and kookaburras.
See an animal alphabet from ants to zebras – all in a day.
Keeper Encounters daily during holidays and weekends (April-Oct).
Adventure playgrounds
A free Road train, a variety of catering outlets and Ark Gift Shop.
There are many other ways to support our work, why not adopt one of our animals for yourself or as a special gift for a friend or loved one.

Marwell Zoological Park is a world class zoo. It was founded by Dr John Knowles OBE and opened in 1972 as Britain's first major collection established for the conservation of endangered species. Marwell aims to raise awareness and understanding of animals and their habitats through education, good presentation and breeding of endangered species. The ultimate aim is re-introduction of animals to the wild when suitable conditions exist. Scimitar-horned Oryx, Przewaski's horses, Golden Lion Tamarins and Sand Lizards are some of the Marwell species currently involved in the re-introduction programmes. The Park is owned by the Marwell Preservation Trust Ltd, a registered charity and houses over 200 species of animal, in a beautiful parkland setting of 100 acres. It includes White Rhinos, Siberian Tigers, Amur Leopards, Giraffes, Okapi, Ostrich and many other species.
