Zoos, farms and aquariums

If you had to pick one suggestion to make the whole family smile on a day out, it could very well be the chance to meet our hairy, furry, slippery and hoofed friends in the zoos, aquariums and farms of Wales. It’s often a chance to get hands-on with nature and you’re guaranteed some surprises, from Vietnamese pigs and wallaby to rare birds of prey in their natural habitat.
