New Forest Wildlife Park

About

Come and meet Victor the red deer stag, Hamish the pine marten and Hettie the hedgehog at New Forest Wildlife Park this year. Ogle at all the otters or be enthralled by the tropical butterfly house at this lovely woodland park, which helps to conserve endangered species and rehabilitates injured animals from the wild. Meet Bobbie the rescue roe deer face-to-face in the deer encounter enclosure or see the harvest mice scurrying in their glasshouse home. Admire Munchkin the lynx, with her hypnotic stare, or be impressed by the howling wolves. It’s great fun watching the lively Asian short-clawed otters at play or the giant otters sploshing in their pool. With polecats, mouflon, wild boar, wallabies, ferrets, Scottish wildcats, European bison, foxes and North American river otters to enjoy too, it’s a great day out for all the family. There are many species of owls to admire, including snowy owls Chilli, Orkney and Herdi, little owls and barn owl Hobbit. You’ll learn fascinating facts from the friendly keepers on their daily feeding rounds and have a blast in the fabulous Go Wild adventure playgrounds. The Tropical Butterfly House is open in summer and there’s a tempting café and gift shop. The New Forest Tour Bus red route goes right to the door in the summer months and there are special events in the school holidays.
