Whipsande zoo is turning 90 years old on Sunday, so be prepared for lots of amazing animal treats.
To start off the celebrations, the 90th visitor on the Zoo’s birthday will be invited to meet and feed the Zoo’s herd of giraffes, including five-month-old giraffe calf Margaret.
The Zoo will also have a birthday treasure hunt throughout this weekend (22-23 May) and May half term (29 May – 6 June).
Families can also follow the birthday trail around the Zoo and collect a free sticker when they have completed it.
Visitors can create birthday-themed crafts including origami elephants to celebrate one of Whipsnade’s most iconic animals, as well as take a look at how the Zoo’s keeper uniforms have changed over the decades.
And not to be missed out, some of the 3,500 animals at the zoo will be given special 90th Birthday treats too!
