About

Come out of your shell, step into our keepers shoes and head behind the scenes into the terrapin habitat. Get up close with this impressive squad of tiny turtles - you’ll be surprised at how quick they can move. After helping our keeper prepare their lunch, you will head into their habitat and be swarmed as they smell the nutritious morsels.
