I did upload a few photos after my visit in August. It's not the most photogenic place - an area inside near the underwater viewing area for the seals, with half a dozen tanks containing fish, rays, crabs etc. You enter via a sloping path with artificial mangrove trees and a model of a proboscis monkey. Interesting, nevertheless.

Will do my best to try to meet all your requests,with abit of luck i should be able to post some news while i`m away as i don`t fancy doing it all when i come back.

 

[JamesB]

some photos of slimbridge and the seal sanctuary would be nice

 

[zoogiraffe]

With a bit of luck will be posting some pictures from Bristol,Noahs,Shaldon and Living Coasts in the next day or so.

The trip to Gweek will be worth the trip alone to see the only captive hooded seal in Europe if not the world.
