On World Primate Day we will be offering the opportunity to fence feed one of our primate species.
Each ticket allows 1 person to feed one of the Hoo Zoo DeBrazza Monkeys, Common Marmoset or Squirrel Monkeys. The DeBrazza Monkeys are fed from outside their habitat through the safety fencing, whereas the Squirrel Monkeys and Marmoset will be from inside the habitat. Minimum age of 16 for all participants - no exceptions. Please be aware the fence feed locations are not wheelchair accessible.
Timings for feedings:
11am and 3pm - Marmosets
11.20am and 3.20pm - Squirrel Monkeys
11.40am and 3.40pm - DeBrazza Monkeys
Each feeding opportunity will be in groups of 10-15 people and each person will be able to feed 1 food item and take photographs.
All proceeds go towards caring for all the animals that call Hoo Zoo home.
