Cromer Zoo

[(Professor Emeritus)Professor Paul]

Some ideas from zoos I have visited. At Whipsnade & at the Norfolk Wildlife Park the path was raised higher than the herbivore exhibits so you could look down at the animals. Norfolk also had a wolf enclosure behind wild boars (here behind warthogs) with a raised observation area. The Feline Forest is broadly based on the one at Amazona Zoo in Cromer.

 

Like Norfolk there are very few hard paved paths.

Thank you. No good zoo is without good architecture! The secret is working out where it looks good! There are also a couple more exhibits included here!

I thought as the church looks like it could have been designed by Christopher Wren , it should have birds associated with it!

Finished the small mammals (meerkat & bengal fox) and started on reptiles (chameleon & coral snake)

And some more general views of the zoo

I'm getting low on space in this zoo, but it needs more wild dogs, more deer & birds of prey. Ive started with the dogs (only half an hour spare tonight after working on PPNE)

I try to remember that people want to see the animals. You can view these carnivores either by riding the train or taking the path

I'm grouping the animals by continent. Africa takes up the most room easiy
