Heythrop Zoo Heythrop Open Day

[Bele]

I had a most enjoyable day , my first visit . Good weather , good company of fellow Zoochatters , good collection with quite a few unusual species . The highlight for me was the shows - simulated wolf attack , very entertaining Barnyard Animal Display ( hanging the fruit bat out to dry with the washing was fun ) and in particular Jim Clubb's Big Cat Encounter . I appreciate this display would not be to everybody's taste but the capacity audience certainly enjoyed it . It brought back happy memories of many years ago when I was young and the big travelling circuses visited Swansea with all their animals .
