Jersey Zoo was founded in 1959 by author and naturalist Gerald Durrell. Its 32 acres of beautifully landscaped park is home to over 100 species of animal, many of which are threatened in the wild. The zoo is the heartbeat of Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust, the global charity with a mission to save species from extinction. The zoo's onsite facilities include two cafés, 5-star glamping at Durrell Wildlife Camp, a hostel and the Durrell Conservation Academy.
We had a wonderful time visiting Jersey zoo, the weather was great, such a variety of animals to see and lots to hear and see about Gerald Durrell too, certainly well worth a visit if you are on the island.
