Newquay Zoo developments promise immersive habitats and experiences
Works have started to revamp some of the animals' enclosures
Changes are coming to Newquay Zoo in Cornwall this summer, as work begins on new immersive habitats and experiences.
The venue says a 'savannah route' will give clearer views of the animals - including meerkats and porcupines.
A new 'Madagascar zone' will feature free-roaming lemurs, plus a nocturnal environment for the aye-aye that's moving there soon from Paignton Zoo in Devon.
Steven van den Heuvel, the transition manager for Newquay Zoo, said: "This is the beginning of a really exciting new phase.
“We want visitors to feel like they are stepping into new worlds, rather than simply viewing animals from a distance."
Initial designs are also in place for a future giraffe habitat.
