Conservation in Action

With recent TV series such as Sir David Attenborough’s Planet Earth raising the profile of the ecology movement and greater national awareness of so many species now under threat, 365tickets.com has brought together a range of zoos, parks and aquariums throughout the country on a dedicated part of its website.

The Natural World section on 365tickets.com offers tickets for a wide choice of attractions ranging from London Zoo and Whipsnade Park to the SEA LIFE and Seal Sanctuaries in Loch Lomond, Weymouth, Cornwall, Hunstanton, Scarborough, Brighton, Blackpool and Glasgow.

The intention behind this is to inspire the young and old to rediscover the natural world. As children are naturally fascinated by animals, this will also help parents refresh and extend their knowledge of our planet and its environment. Many of the attractions not only encourage close interaction with the animals but have also created fun educational exhibits which will further deepen visitors’ understanding of the animal kingdom.

At London Zoo for example, this year has already seen the opening of two new enclosures. The exciting new ‘Into Africa’ exhibit is a recreation of the African savannah with zebras roaming together with giraffes for the first time. Visitors can also see warthog, okapi and African hunting dogs close up and experience the world through a giraffe’s eyes from a high-level viewing platform. The London Zoo’s other new exhibit is the aptly named ‘Butterfly Paradise’, which is a tunnel-shaped caterpillar through which you can walk and observe more than 160,000 species of butterflies and moths at close range.

Or, to learn more about the marine world, visit the SEA LIFE Sanctuaries which also boast many curious residents such as three-metre wide Spider Crabs, and offer an insight into how species survive, adapt and flourish in the harshest conditions.

The USA pioneered large-scale parks with a natural world theme, and anyone heading across the pond this summer can also book a range of them, such as Gatorland, SeaWorld and Busch Gardens on 365tickets.com.
