Animal Experience Days: The mischievous little creatures are seemingly everywhere these
days, and we just can't get enough of them! If you're looking for
the perfect experience gift for an animal lover, you really needn't
look any further - this meet and greet the meerkats experience in
Oxford allows you to get up close and personal with some truly
fascinating critters, for a full half hour.
Upon arriving at the Oxford-based wildlife and bird of prey
centre, you'll be warmly welcomed by your keeper and given a brief
safety talk, before preparing some tasty treats for your new
friends.
You'll then enter the enclosure, and be introduced to
Ginger and Tom, the centre's resident meerkats.
Armed with your own
feeding bowl, you'll soon be closely aquainted with the cheeky pair
and they'll be helping themselves to snacks from your lap.
For half
an hour, you'll be able to observe first hand, the unique behaviors
that make these animals so recognisable.
Your knowledgeable keeper
will be able to provide you with some interesting insights into
their natural habitats and behaviours, and will be happy to answer
any questions you may have.
And as if this immersive hands-on
wildlife experience was not enough, you'll also receive free entry
to the entire birds of prey centre, where you can spend the
remainder of the day admiring the power and grace of some of
Britain's best loved raptors - the flying displays are sure to keep
you busy for the rest of the afternoon.
For any avid animal fan, this 30 minute meerkat experience is a
once in a lifetime opportunity to get up-close with the curious
nature of some fascinating characters.
