About this event
Newquay Zoo has welcomed two of the world’s rarest carnivores – a young pair of endangered brown hyenas – making it the only zoo in the South West, and just one of two in the UK, to house this elusive species.
The sibling pair, named Flo and Quinn, arrived from Hamerton Zoo Park on Tuesday 15 July. At just under two years old, the young hyenas are already exploring their new home – a specially adapted enclosure which previously housed the zoo’s lions, who are now thriving at sister site Paignton Zoo.
Newquay Zoo is consistently at the forefront of conservation and visitor engagement. As part of Wild Planet Trust – alongside Paignton Zoo and several UK nature reserves – the zoo contributes to a wide range of UK and overseas conservation projects, including vital work in southern Africa, where brown hyenas are found in the wild. Closer to home, the zoo has proudly achieved recognised breeding successes – including the recent birth of critically endangered cotton-top tamarins and the participation in a lynx rewilding programme in Europe – as well as BIAZA-award-winning research and engaging education programmes for schools and home educators across the South West. Every visit to Newquay Zoo supports this broader mission: to help halt species decline.
