Paignton Zoo is home to thousands of amazing animals and plants. Walk through a world of wonder – visit the desert, cross the savannah, explore the forest and trek through the tropics. Use your senses to discover the wild world: look around, listen out – you’ll even need your sense of smell! Find out about conservation and the world’s endangered species. Paignton Zoo is a great day out for everyone. As well as the thousands of animals, there’s a miniature train ride, a wobbly jungle bridge in Lemur Wood, indoor and outdoor play areas, keeper talks and feeding times, places to eat and places to sit – all packed into 80 acres of natural habitat. The Zoo is divided into six different habitat zones: Primley, Savannah, Forest, Wetland, Tropical Forest and Desert. All of these represent world habitats, except for Primley, which is an area of the Zoo where you can find animals from a variety of habitats
