Attraction partner Will Dorrell says keepers at the attraction have been spending more time with the Meerkat Experience group during lockdown to make up for the missing visitors, who will not be able to return until April 12 under coronavirus rules.

“We were hoping to get open as soon as possible. In our opinion zoos are one of the safest places due to our strict bio-security protocols such as hand washing and foot dips."
