Jersey Zoo is closing to visitors


MEDIA RELEASE: The views expressed in this article are those of the author and not Bailiwick Express, and the text is reproduced exactly as supplied to us

Sadly, due to the developing situation surrounding coronavirus and the Government's latest advice on social distancing, Jersey Zoo is closing to visitors from Tuesday 24th March, until further notice.

This has been a very difficult decision, but, as always the safety and welfare of our visitors, animals and staff are our top priority so, unfortunately, closing our gates is the only option to reduce the spread of COVID-19.

During this unsettling time, our dedicated team of keepers, vets and essential support staff will ensure that all our animals continue to receive the very best care and we will endeavour to keep our loyal members, visitors and supporters updated on news from the zoo.

We understand these are uncertain times for everyone and we are so grateful for the continued support of our members, visitors, adopters and donors. As a charity, we rely solely on this support to look after over 1,000 animals here at Jersey Zoo and to continue our vital conservation work protecting the world’s most precious ecosystems and wildlife.

We are keeping this page updated with any changes: https://www.durrell.org/wildlife/news/coronavirus-update-jersey-zoo/

The communications team are now all working remotely, so best to contact myself or Tiffany via email or my mobile is below.
