Animals and Attractions
But that's not all. To make your trip to London Zoo an even more amazing experience, you can also visit the largest penguin pool in England! Catch the penguins as they dive into the water, swim and feed. Watch a stunning display of the Humboldt penguin colony, as the penguin pool provides cool underwater views and daily talks like Penguin Beach Live. There's even a penguin nursery (*cuteness overload*) where the baby animals learn to swim in a shallow pool!
Head over to the Tiny Giants: From Minibeasts to Coral Reef. Discover schools of coral reef fish in the coral reef aquarium, think clownfish, bluetangs and even jellyfish! You'll be able to learn, and be given a bugs-eye view of a range of fish species and HD vision jumping spiders, as you find yourself shrunk to the size of an ant! Catch sight of mantis shrimp, and watch how aquatic animals camouflage and clean our oceans. With a seven-metre-long reef aquarium with coral reefs, there is an extensive collection of sea critters. And be sure not to miss Europe’s only walk-through spider enclosure. Explore how these fascinating creatures live and leave any fear you have at the door, as you spot massive house spiders and more. Start your arachni-quest from the average household 'bathtub' spider to fascinating exotic species such as the black widow, huntsman and giant bird-eating spiders. You might even be able to catch a glimpse of nests with spider eggs.
Finally, make sure you stop by the Animal Adventure zone! Designed with child-friendly low barriers, it allows little animal lovers to come up close with porcupines, mongooses and other curious animals. Not to mention, there’s a play zone and water play area, as well! With a huge range of beautiful animals, whether it's aquatic wildlife, baby animals, or those that live in cold weather or warm weather, you'll discover them here, in one of the biggest collections of animals in the UK.
