Most of our encounters start at £100, but we can tailor an experience to suit most budgets.
Yes! We have an animal activities licence, which means we have been (and continue to be) inspected and approved by the council for the care and knowledge we have for our animals. We also have full insurance, clean DBS checks, and carry risk assessments. We’ve got everything covered to ensure a safe and enjoyable encounter.
While we recommend participants to be over the age of 5, our encounters are suitable for all ages of children and well-behaved adults.
Unlike many other animal encounter companies, we charge for the amount of animals you’ll see at your birthday party, not how long it lasts or how many participants there are. This ensures there will be no sneaky fees added if things falls behind schedule, or if guests bring unexpected siblings. We generally recommend a group size between 8 and 15, but can cater for larger groups.
If you’re planning for more than 15 participants (especially with younger children) we‘d just ask that parents stay for the duration to help keep things calm and quiet whilst the animals are out.
We want the encounter to be enjoyable for everybody present. If anyone in the party has any serious phobias then we will try our best to accomodate them. Alternatively, if you really want to see a certain animal, let us know and we’ll be sure to bring them along!*

Our animals are exactly that, animals! They do have teeth and sharp claws that can hurt, but we will brief everybody on how to correctly handle our team members, and also provide protective equipment where appropriate to avoid any injuries.
Unfortunately we don’t (yet!) have a centre that is open to the public. However, we are happy to deliver our encounters in almost any venue! From big country parks to grandma’s living room, just let us know your plans and we’ll work together to ensure an amazing encounter for everyone.
We are based in Bradford, West Yorkshire, and cover all areas within an hours drive. This includes Bradford, Halifax, Sheffield, Leeds, Harrogate, Wakefield, Huddersfield, and Manchester. We are happy to travel further afield, but extra charges may apply.
