This contract and all matters arising out of it are governed by English law.

Refund Policy:

All tickets are non-transferable, not for resale, are not refundable and will become automatically void on any transfer for value.

Safety Procedures :

All animals naturally carry a range of microorganisms, some of which can be transmitted to humans where they can cause illness. Some animals also have the potential to cause harm through biting or scratching. Therefore it is essential that when visiting the animal contact areas you pay attention to and follow any signage you encounter.
