Animal Experience Days: If you like your animals cold-blooded and scaly, this is the experience for you! Get ready to visit one of Cheshire’s top exotic animal centres, in Alsager, where you’ll learn all about a variety of wonderful reptiles.
Reptiles have been around for hundreds of millions of years, and they include crocodiles, snakes, lizards, turtles and tortoises. Once upon a time, the Earth was ruled by their relatives, the dinosaurs, and though T-Rex and Velociraptor are now long gone (thank goodness!), we can still recognise their likeness in some of today’s fearsome species. Fortunately, you shan’t be coming face-to-face with any of these during your one-hour session! Instead, you’ll get to meet and handle a variety of friendlier (though no less fascinating) reptiles, including snakes, lizards and tortoises from the centre’s exotic collection. Your guide will introduce each species before telling you all about their natural habitat and behaviour in the wild. They may be cold-blooded, but they’re sure to warm your heart!
The Reptile Encounter in Cheshire would make a unique experience gift for animal lovers, young and old. Surprise someone with an Experience Days voucher today!
