Bristol zoo is very attractive to visit although I was concerned by how little space some of their animals seem to have. Especially as I had recently visited Noah's Ark Zoo Farm which is only 6 miles away from them and that place is about 100 acres! No comparison.
Not much for kids to play on as the animals only held their attention for a short time and they like to let off steam. Noah's Ark has 11 huge adventure playgrounds which kept them entertained for hours - as Noah's Ark is cheaper than Bristol Zoo, I know where I'm heading again!
Plus I remember when Bristol Zoo used to say they wouldn't replace their lion when it died as their enclosure for lions really is quite appalling - lo and behold, the lion dies and they are getting another! Is this in the spirit of conservation or marketing?!
