Meerkat, Lemur and Serval Animal Encounters Feeding Experience for Two People

At Hoo Zoo and Dinosaur World, you’ll have the chance to get up close to Meerkat, Lemur and Serval Animal Encounters with Feeding for Two at Hoo Zoo and Dinosaur World.

Kick-start the 60 minute experience by hand-feeding one of the groups of Meerkats, interacting with them as they climb on you. After meeting the meerkats, you’ll be introduced to either the Black and White Ruffled Lemurs Joon, Tana and Obi or the group of Ringtails, who love nothing more than some attention and food.

Finish the adventure with the resident Servals Duma or Zeus. A close relative of the Cheetah, they can reach 50mph and jump nine feet high. Being typical cats, they love human company and are very curious. Friendly keepers will be on hand throughout to guide you through the experience and answer any questions you may have. This is the ideal day out for animal lovers.

  • Meerkat, Lemur and Serval Animal Encounters with Feeding for Two at Hoo Farm Animal Kingdom

    So if you buy this for 2 children to feed the animals does anyone know what the cost is for the accompanying parents? Many thanks

    • Minimum age: 8 (under 16s must be accompanied by an adult)
    • Admission is only included for participants of the experience. Accompanying adults will have to purchase admission on the day.
    • Children under 16 do need an adult on site to participate and this adult can attend purely as a spectator (in which case they’d need to purchase admission) or on the experience ticket (in which case they’d take up one of the participant spots)

    So based on that, looks as if adults can be a spectator but would need to get a ticket for general admission, looking on the Hoo farm site adult prices range from £9 to £14.95 hoo-zoo.com/vis…es/ (edited)

    I've also done the meerkat experience - they were climbing all over us and sitting in coat hoods etc, so very hands-on!

    Please do your research on these experiences and the institution first. Lots of feedback about this place and the obvious signs of stress in the animals. Their welfare should come first.

    I'd love to gift this to my twenty-something kids. However we are located at the top end of Yorkshire. There is a local place,also on Virgin Experience but sadly no HUKD discount for us northerners 😿 (edited)

    TIL Serval is an animal not a misspelling of several. I really want a penguin experience to pop up. (edited)
