What happens during a Manchester show?

1. Your Ranger will arrive about 15 minutes before the start time

Transported in different boxes, the animals will need a short time to settle before the show

2. Once set up everyone sits in front of the animals

Leave enough space that the Ranger can get to the animals and move around to show them to everyone

3. The Ranger shows each animal & explains how to handle them correctly

You can choose to look, touch or hold. No Pressure. The Ranger will give you lots of fascinating facts about each animal.

There are always lots of opportunities to have your picture taken with the animals and to ask the Ranger any questions.
