    I visited the zoo last year with a few friends. It needs alot of money putting into it, I found it dirty and run down. The animals were kept poorly and appeared lifeless with the exception of the orangutans that were distressed. In addition to this, me and my friends got whistled and leered at throughout the day by men running the outdated fairground that seemed to be falling apart. The food was overpriced so was the entrance fee. I took my cousins there a few years back, the way the animals were kept upset them (they are 3 and 5 years old!).Although the zoo has made changes over the last year or so it is nowhere near up to the standard it should be.

    I visited Dudley zoo on the 12/05/08. It was very quiet being a Monday afternoon which was nice and the weather was lovely. The food is quite expensive but it usually is at places like this. In my opinion some of the animal enclosures are not to great and leave you feeling a bit sorry for the animals, the Orangutans looked bored and cramped which did not seem very fair. Some of the animals I had been looking forward to seeing where not there which was disappointing and the sign posting is not ve ...

    Dudley Zoo and Castle is a fantastic day out for entire family. Chance to see both zoo and castle is excellent and educational, opportunities to learn about the history is great for both kids and adults.

    Dudley Zoo and Castle looks a bit run down to me and I think it could do with some funding, but a nice day out for younger children - maybe being a adult made me feel sorry for the animals. Luckily when I went the weather was nice, it only took around 2hrs to walk around the zoo, but it tired the kids out because of the hills.

    A nice zoo if rather hilly. The bird and reptile house are very good and most enclosures are well made, the exception being the dreadful tiger pit enclosure. The lemurs have a brilliant area as do the chimps. It takes about 2 hours to get around and is well worth a visit.

    What a pleasant surprise Dudley Zoo and Castle was! Took a group of 6 young people (age 17) & 2 staff for an usual activity day. Car park wasn't signposted - neither was the entrance. All looked a bit bleak when we arrived but once we had paid (good student rates) there were some real treats. Wear comfy shoes and a few layers to enjoy the full extent of this jewel of the Black Country! Set against backdrop of castle, we were treated to an enormous variety of sights: penguins, reptile house, ...
