Whipsnade Wild Animal Park Description
Whipsnade Zoo, the largest zoo of its kind (600 acres/248ha), was established in 1927-31. The park itself is of great scenic beauty, in addition to being well stocked with animals. The outline of a lion was cut in the chalk on the north side as a warning signal to aircraft. A narrow gauge railroad runs through part of the park.

The Whipsnade Zoo is home to more than 2,500 animals, including many rare and endangered species. Special children's activities and playground. Daily demonstrations of birds, sea lions and elephants.
